Mom & Me Event at the Rockwell Tent

When I was little, I loved summer vacation. I would go to my grandmother’s house to go swimming. Most of all, I loved spending time with my mom and dad. Now that I have my little daughter, I can’t wait to bring her along. I can’t wait to enroll her for activities that she can do to enhance her skills. I can’t wait to do activities together. Even if she’s still a baby, I bring her with me wherever I go. I’m planning to bring her to this fun activity at the Rockwell Tent Makati for the Mom and Me event. This will be on May 25 and 26 (from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.).

This event aims to foster the relationship of moms and kids through activities that both can do together. While kids can learn from independent play as it nourishes creativity and imagination and organized activities with other kids as in summer classes, when parents and kids do activities together, it gives them a common sense of purpose and a goal. Kids love receiving the affection and undivided attention of their parents, and want to be able to spend as much time with them as possible.

What are the activities that you can do with your kids during this event? Here are some of the things you can do:

Yoga and Zumba to be led by Beyond Yoga

BABY BLAST YEAR 4

I’m so glad that Mommy Ginger is the Media partner of BABY BLAST Event this year. This is the first event that Mommy Ginger agreed to be a media partner. I guess it’s because I love the objective of promoting and showing people the importance of Early Head Start (EHS) Education. During this Baby Blast Event, which is brought to us by Outbox Media Production Agency, EHS advocates, teachers, doctors, parents and kids gather together at the Trinoma Activity Center on April 14, 2013, from 10am-7pm.

The first Baby Blast event was last 2010 and ever since that time, this annual event has been the venue for promoting unforced and enjoyable learning. It has shown parents that hands-on play and parent-child bonding during the age of 0-3 years is critical in laying down the foundation for the child’s future learning and holistic development. Every year, attendance to the event grows in number, as more families enjoy the fun activities and learn from the featured topics.

This year, the title of the event is “BABY BLAST 4: Discover. Create. Imagine. Explore!“. It focuses on the importance of allowing babies and kids to experience the outdoors and engage in physical activities that can benefit their social, mental, physical and emotional development, given today’s tendency to merely rely on gadgets and technology to keep kids busy.

The event will feature entertaining talks on health, parenting and education from experts, parents and teachers, Early Head Start demos, exhibits, booths and fun activities! Aside from the onstage program and activities, here are this year’s exhibit areas to look forward to:

WORLD OF DISCOVERY:
Find new discoveries in the amazing world of books, toys and technology! EHS schools will also be present to show the programs they offer!
CREATIVITY CORNER:
Get hands on with creative projects like arts, crafts, baking and even robotics!
BEYOND YOUR IMAGINATION:
Let your child’s imagination run free with mind-boggling experiments and fun activities!
BABY EXPLORERS:
See how learning begins with exploration and fun play through Early Head Start!

There are also online contests and pre-registration happening before the day of the event:
