SM City East Ortigas Shops (and Restaurants)

The new lifestyle destination is just around the corner! My corner exactly.. and it just opened its door today! SM City East Ortigas is finally open and we can now take a look what’s inside and find out what are the SM City East Ortigas Shops! The excitement can be felt as you enter the mall. Hindi magkamayaw ang mga tao. An SM on this side of Pasig is long overdue and I am very happy to be a part of this special event. SM City East Ortigas is SM 60th mall! Ang bonggey bonggey! I feel proud about that hahaha

I came early and I am not surpised by the amount of people waiting for the mall to open. Grabedad, people are really excited about this grand opening and I am too! A few weeks ago I got the chance to watch a video rendering of what can be inside the mall. I got really excited seeing some of my fave stores like Watsons, Giordano, Uniqlo and some of my favorite food establishments like Starbucks and Yabu.

SM City East Ortigas Shops

So there is a Starbucks and there’s even a Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf inside. There’s Watsons and it’s big. The supermarket can be found near the entrance, the same as Starbucks. There are so many food establishments! And saya koooo! Aside from the usuals (McDo and Jollibee) meron din Mesa and Kuya J’s. I did not got the chance to see if there would be Yabu and Pancake House is opening soon. Buuuuut UNIQLO is really there (opening soon!). Watch the video below for more SM City East Ortigas Shops:

I never got the chance to see what’s inside SM Department store kase sobra talaga dami ng tao! I promise I will be back here, uhhm, maybe later today to see the inside of the department store. Sana they would extend the opening hours kahit this December lang. As of now store is open until 10 PM (will check on that later). With the amount of people who wants to go to SM City East Ortigas and check out the SM City East Ortigas Shops and Restaurants, parang dapat open sila 24 hours! haha

We got an invite to check out the Great Chicco Sale 2016 at any of their branches! Coincidentally, I also got an invite, actually my son got an invite to do a toy review for Toys R Us Uptown Mall BGC and there’s a Chicco Boutique there! Along with Mommy Levy (and we bumped into Mommy Janice of Roller Coaster Ride) we checked out the items on sale at Chicco Boutique, Uptown Mall BGC:

Baby clothes on sale is the best!!

Of course baby gears such as high chair, stroller, cribs, car seats on sale are also the best if you are having a baby. So if you do, you gotta check out the Great Chicco Sale at the following Chicco Boutiques:

Greenbelt 5

The Great Chicco Sale starts November 30 and will end on December 4. So if you really need a high chair right, it’s the best time to buy one!

Scholastic Book Fair 2016- Sacred Heart Pasig

If I have to tell you this again and again, I would. READING IS THE KEY TO LEARNING. It is the key to learning new things. It is the key to having an intelligent child. It is the key to being one of the top students. It is even the key to gaining new friends. One of posts in reading includes: 10 Smart Parenting Tips On Encouraging Your Kids To Love Reading Books and 3 Tried and Tested Ways To Encourage Your Kids To Read More. I am very passionate in encouraging parents to teach their kids to learn how to read and to love reading. And I am so happy that the school where my kids are currently enrolled have a book fair! And from one of our favorite publisher nonetheless! Scholastic Book Fair 2016- Sacred Heart Pasig will on run until December 2 only so I made my morning free last Tuesday to check out the fair.

I also got the chance to meet Fritzie from Scholastic during my visit.

That “How To Code” Book is perfect for kids Grade 3 and below! I bought one for my kids bec their dad is software developer 🙂

You know what’s the best thing about Book Fair? PEER PRESSURE hahaha when kids are pressured to buy books bec their friend are buying too! And I think this is the best kind of peer pressure. Kaya moms and dads, if any chance there is a book fair in your kids’ school, by all means, give them money to buy their own book!
