Safeguard Soap Alarm: My New Partner in Family Safety

Image
My family’s health is and will forever be my priority. No amount of wealth could be compare to it, for money is useless if they are sick and won’t be able to enjoy life doing what they want. As a mom, I was always on the lookout for thing that could help my children be healthy. Whenever one of my kids is sick, the whole family is affected not only emotionally, physically but financially as well.  I always remind them that little things matter, just like hand washing is important because it will stop the spread of germs and diseases. But there are times that even though how many times I remind them to wash their hands, they seems to forget. It was by chance that I discovered the Safeguard Soap Alarm. I was at McDonald’s and need to go the washroom and found this red soap dispenser installed on the wall. I was still washing my hand when someone went out, and all of the sudden; an alarm went on. The alarm was triggered once a person leaves a toilet cubicle and it only stop when th...

Birthday Celebration :the Banzai Way

Image
I am the eldest and the only girl in the family. I take my being a big sister seriously that even though my sibling are all grown up and other have their own family, I still make an effort to be part of their life, especially during their birthdays. I could still remember when I used to bring them to park like Nayong Pilipino to celebrate their big day. April 9 was declared a holiday but not for me. As early as 5 am, I was already up and accompanying my brother Melvin to the NAIA1 going to Abu Dhabi. I went home around 8 am to get some sleep and meet our youngest Arnel, who will be celebrating his birthday on April 12. Since we are both working that on the day of his birthday, we decided to celebrate it on April 9.  We love to eat out and we particularly love Japanese food; the maki, the sushi, the tepanyaki, the ramen. What better way to celebrate his birthday but to dine at the BANZAI. It’s the newest Japanese Restaurant that recently opened and making a big buzz when it co...

Breeze urges moms to join the Sige Sabado movement and say Yes to Learning!

Image
Mommies play the important role of being their children’s first and foremost teacher. They have the power to ensure their children grow up to be well rounded and happy kids. However, moms, by nature, have the tendency to be over protective of their children especially with regards to being messy. They often associate getting dirty and stained with something negative such as being irresponsible as well as hard work for them in terms of cleaning. This is the kind of mindset that Breeze, one of the country’s leading detergent brands, would want moms to change. Since Breeze strongly believes that life’s lessons are best learned through experience, the brand strongly encourages moms to adopt the Sige sa Mantsa philosophy which is all about allowing their kids to be kids and explore and learn positive values even at the expense of getting dirty and stained.  Saturdays are for the family To further forward the advocacy of child learning and development, Breeze launched the Sig...
