Playing in the Rain, Cough Medications and Truthful Advertising

Rain, rain, go away.
Come again another day!
I love that song. Commonly heard in preschool and in children’s playlist. And most probably the first song that comes into mind when you see rain starting to fall. That is along side with Aegis bawling to – “Basang-basa sa ulan”. Rain never ceases to bring in nostalgic feelings of childhood when the first few drops fall on dry soil. I had those memories of playing in the rain.

Do you let your kids play in the rain too?

Fridge Finds - The Amazing Jell-o Creamy Fruit Salad!

It's really amazing what concoction you can make out of stuff you can find in the ref or fridge. We made this one on a boring Thursday and it was quick fix for our sweet teeth. It's really an easy, no fail treat.

Dabby's Doodles on Draw

When I was his age I am quite sure I have been using just crayons and paper to fill my moments. The smell of crayola everytime we have drawing activites for homeschooling always brings back fond memories of papercuts and experimental fun where we boil old crayons on a spoon to melt it and use for an art project.

With the digital world that we live in, it is normal for kids nowadays to include fun using gadgets. Does your kid use gadgets too?

Dabby had always been a fan of doodling using Draw via iPad. It's an app that works much like Paint on PC but yeah, much cooler since you use touch to draw.

I'll include here some of the fun stuff he made.






Blues Clues for sure. We got one like this on our bedroom door too. And on the floor yesterday.

Will you be watching Pacman - Margarito fight?

It's funny that we heard a radio advertisement on the taxi. This was when we went home from Ayala (Archon) tonight. I was asking the hubby when the Pacman - Margarito fight will be and.. well, he said he doesn't care.

Was keen on listening when they will mention the date and after minutes of blah blahs, there it was at last! The date when the fight will be -- November 14! Well, not like we're going to consciously watch but we still end up watching it! LOL

What will be my options? I can Google and stream from various blogs who have the stream link for sure. Aside from that I can always watch on the local TV which for sure will be a few hours late.

But here's one option if you have PLDT and it's to use PLDT Watchpad to watch the Pacman - Margarito fight. Here you can view it live, free and with no commercial breaks.



What you will need though is a connection speed of 768 kbps or higher is needed for optimized viewing of the fight. If you are already a plan 990 subscriber, you will need to upgrade to plan 1299 though. If you are already a Watchpad user you can reserve your slot here.


For more updates, you can “like” PLDT WatchPad on Facebook or if you are on Twitter you can follow PLDT WatchPad too!

Halloween Trick or Treat at Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort

Location: Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort
Cost: Php 800 excluding lunch and fare

Halloween is one of the fun-nest times of the year. Not only for adults who get to cross-dress but also for kids who get become mini-version of adults. Only much carefree. It's the time of the year that kids get to eat sweets with consent. It is also the time that they get to dress up into anyone they want or wish to be.


Last year we had our Trick or Treating at SM Cebu. This year we decided to spend it at Maribago Bluewater Beach Resort.  We learned about the event on Facebook and decided it is the best venue to spend our Halloween 2010. And the result? Super fun!!
