Are You Ready for School?

June 09, 2017 0 Comments
Hello June! It's back to school once again, but are you ready for school? Are we? 

Disney's Are You Ready For School? (Winnie the Pooh's School Days) Book

My daughter will be in Kindergarten this school year and I think we are somewhat ready for school. We did some activities, exercises and review what she had learned last school year. There are some things she had forgotten or still confused, like writing the letters "b, d and s" and numbers "5 and 6". She sometimes write those letters and numbers in reverse. It's a good thing that we had this review before going back to school. :)

She also love books... She loves to read, so we read some books that are appropriate for her age and later on I let her read on her own.

Their school provide the bags and other school materials that they will be needing at school, so we don't have to worry looking and lining up at the store for every materials needed and required school supplies for their upcoming class. :)

I've already checked her school uniforms and shoes if it's still okay and I'm glad everything is still fine and can still be used. There's a few skirt that needs a little adjustment, other than that, we're good to go. :)

Easter Sunday 2017

June 08, 2017 0 Comments
This is a long overdue post, hence, I'll still post this for Miel to read when she grows up...

It was our first time to join an Easter Sunday Activity such as Easter Egg Hunting and Easter Egg Painting and coloring activity. My daughter really had fun and she really enjoyed the activities and games that they've played. There were games for children her age and she happily played along with the other kids. She got excited to play another game when their team won and got their prizes... Kids love prizes... ;)


Joining this kind of activity is a great bonding for both of us. She also get to interact with different kids her age and she enjoyed doing all the activities with enthusiasm.

Miel's entry for the Coloring Activity got her two swimming pool passes at The Royal Mandaya Hotel. She's happy and excited to swim there but unfortunately, we haven't had the chance to go yet. But, we'll make sure to avail the passes before it expires... ;)

Over-all, the event was great and we had so much fun. Miel's actually looking forward to next year's Easter Sunday and she's hopeful and more motivated to hunt for more eggs next time... ;)

Weekend Getaway at D'Leonor Inland Resort & Adventure Park

May 08, 2017 0 Comments
Last week, we run out of luck while going to the beaches around Samal Island. Unfortunately, all of the resorts that we visited are fully booked! Yeah... So sad... We usually just go into the beach without booking in advance and we didn't encounter any problems so far, until last weekend... There are a lot of people that day, of course, it's Labor Day (a holiday) the next day! Silly us, we didn't check the date before going there. :(

Word of advice, check the calendar first before going to Samal Island. If it's a holiday or a day before the holiday, I suggest you check the availability first and book in advance so you can save your time and money in case that resort has no more rooms available for an overnight stay.

So, after visiting around 5 resorts around Samal Island, we went back to Davao City and went to at D'Leonor Inland Resort & Adventure Park.

Fortunately, they have one room available and we grabbed it right away... YAY! It was already 6pm when we got there, so we had our dinner first before going for a night swim... We ate at the restaurant just near the entrance going to the Wave Pool.

Our stay at D'Leonor Inland Resort was good, there are minor issues but it they've found a way to fix it...

Our kids enjoyed the waves and slides at the pool... It was really hot that day, it's a good thing they have a big man-made mushrooms that served as an umbrella in the Kiddie Pool area... By the way, here's a video that I've made where you can see and experience what's in D'Leonor Wavepool... Enjoy! :)

DFAT 2017 - Saging Repablik

April 21, 2017 0 Comments
Saging Repablik is a great place to hangout with friends and family.  They serve different kinds of food with a twist of banana in it... Their Humbananacue and Spare Ribs with Banana BBQ Sauce is a must try, the meat is so tender and tasty. And you gotta try their best-sellers too which is the Pork and Chicken Sisag  and the different flavors of Gatchips. What I really love is their Banana Walnut Torte, it's sooo delicious..


If you're fond of DIY, you can try their  "Create your own bananacue", they have a station where you can make your own banana with chocolate fondue in different kind of toppings. You can share your creations afterwards on social media with the hashtags: #createyourownbananacue, #sagingrepablik and #mysagingrepablikbananacue.

It was my first time to visit and dine at Saging Repablik and I had a great time with fellow bloggers from Manila, Cebu, General Santos and Davao during the Davao Food Appreciation Tour.

To sum up our experience at Saging Repablik, watch this video below... ;)

LINE: Disney Tsum Tsum Game

January 25, 2017 0 Comments
 

I've tried this app called LINE: Disney Tsum Tsum and I got so hooked up with it. The Disney Tsum Tsum plushies looks so cute and I love the Disney characters inside this addictive puzzle game.

The first Tsum Tsum that I acquired is Mickey Mouse, followed by Donald Duck and I got Princess Elsa when I opened a Premium Box.


Here's How to Play the Disney Tsum Tsum:
  • Connect 3 or more of the same Tsums to eliminate them.
  • The more Tsums you connect, the more points you’ll get!
  • Trigger off Fever Mode to rack up a whole bunch of extra points!
  • Collect Tsums and set your favorite as your MyTsum.
  • Each Tsum has a different skill. Use the one that matches your play style! Find a strategy that works for you personally!
Each Tsum Tsum has a special ability and as for me, I like Princess Ariel and Jasmine. Ariel can clear a circle of Tsum Tsum while Jasmine can clear a horizontal line of Disney Tsum Tsum. :)


In the game, you can earn coins, points, and experience. You can buy a box at the Tsum Tsum Store, you can choose between a Happiness Box which costs 10,000 or a Premium Box which costs 30,000. There's one Tsum in each box and if you get a Tsum that you already have, it's Skill Level will increase.

Hearts are necessary to play the game. Every time you play the game, one Heart is used. One Heart is recovered every 15 minutes but you can also ask for some hearts from your friends if you ran out of it.

There's a Disney Tsum Tsum Cinderella Event which ends tonight. In teh event, you will play and gather magic bottles to make dresses for Cinderella, Snow White and Aurora... If you still haven't completed it, go on and try playing each card. You will get a Prince Charming a Skill Ticket for each completed card.


I just finished completing all of the event cards... 

 And I got Cinderella Tsum Tsum...
 Prince Charming Tsum Tsum
And a Cinderella Event Pin!
 

I am now in level 17 with the 19 Tsum Tsums: Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, Pluto, Chip, Dale, Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, Christopher Robin, Roo, Bambi, Ariel, Elsa, Jasmine, Princess Aurora, Cinderella, and Prince Charming. :)

Are you playing this game too? Add me up, and say Hi! :) Here's my LINE QR Code:
