Breeze Sige Sabado Movement

I don’t usually bring my kids to events (dati oo since I have to helpers that I can tag along).. spell HASSLE! You know naman I have no full time yaya/helper and I don’t expect my part timer to come with us to attend events.. it’s kinda hard to bring all four of them.. ang hirap mag cover pag kasama sila!

But I am glad I brought them at Sige Sabado event last Saturday. Ang bongga ng activities na hinanda ng Breeze for the kids, I was able to cover the event and make chika chika with my blogger friends and with my favorite celebrity, Miss Christine Babao:

And she included me on her photo coverage of the event 🙂 aliw lang>>fan mode haha

What is Sige Sabado Movement?

Breeze strongly believes that life’s lesson are best learned through experience, that is why Breeze encourages moms to adopt the Sige sa Manta philosophy. That is allowing the kids to play and learn even at the expense of getting dirty and stained.

To further forward the advocacy of child learning and development, Breeze launched the Sige Sabado Movement. It’s a call for moms to dedicate Sabados with their kids. A day of learning, playing and having fun and yes, getting stained. Doing arts and crafts is one of our favorite activities but sometimes, I run out of ideas to do! I found out that I am not alone in this. In a recent survey conducted by Breeze, they found out that Moms want to do activities with their kids, at gaya ko, ubos din ang kanilang ideas!

That is why Breeze created the Sige Sabado Habit, check out Breeze’s website (and Facebook Page) and download Sige Sabado How To Sheet.

Capture and share your Sabado bonding moments and share it through Sige Sabada Facebook App and get a chance to win Breeze gift pack and the Sige Sabado Playbox weekly. Grand prize winners will win a trip to Legoland Malaysia.

Breeze Sige Sabado Playbox was introduced to us (media) guest moms and Circle of Sige Moms during the event. The playbox is filled with materials and instructions for making harlequin mask, dinosaur egg bath soaps, choco art, raise a monggo plant, animal balloon paper mache, popsicle stick pen holder and DIY slime.

Teka, sino sino naman ang Circle of Sige Mom?

As a highlight of the Sige Sabado event, the Circle of Sige Moms were introduced. The circle includes celebrity moms Barbie Almalbis- Honasa, Christine Bersola- Babao, Dimples Romana, Gladys Reyes, Nikki Waldez and Carmina Villaroel- Legazpi. Sige Mom Circle is a group of empowered moms untied in their commitment to take charge of their kids’ learning and memories.

The event was hosted by Suzi Entrata-Abrera and we caught them doing some selfie! haha

You can tell from this photo that the Circle of Sige Moms sure know what fun is all about 🙂

Also during the event, Circle of Sige Moms together with the media guests, made a Sige Sabado promise:

American Plastic Toys Girls Cookin’ Kitchen And Deluxe Work Bench

I bought these two lovelies from Walmart a few months ago and last Saturday, 2 boxes of LBC was delivered to us. You wouldn’t believe how my friend (Sati’s godmother) placed all the items in the box. She really is the queen of all packing! Here are the parts of the said toys:

And here’s the finished product after an hour of assembling:

American Plastic Toys Girls Cookin’ Kitchen $40.00

American Plastic Toys Deluxe Work Bench $49.99

I am really glad that these two toys looked exactly the same as it is on Walmart (photos from Walmart):

This is not our first American Plastic Toys, our first was a small kitchen (you can read about it here). Obviously, I love these brand, why? Because it is really cheap and very easy to assemble, not to mention durable! Soon, I will buy the American Plastic Toys My Very Own Shop N’ Pay Market ($19.87) and American Plastic Toys My Very Own Grill ($19.99). Yes, I am a fan! haha

Yes, the toy is really durable, our first one is turning 2 this year and it looks as if I just bought it last week.

As you have seen from the first two photos, there are so many parts. You might be wondering how on earth I managed to set it up just like that. Oh well, Black&Decker helped me a lot (every mom’s must have! haha). And as I have mentioned, American Plastic Toys are easy to assemble. It comes with a very detailed instruction sheet and the parts are labelled neatly:

I am really amazed how American Plastic Toys were able to come up with their toys, I mean, it is really unbelievable how they came up with the parts and how it will look like when assembled. You have to own one American Plastic Toys to really appreciate the craftsmanship behind these toys.

My kids loved the toys, specially, because both has drawers where they can put their smaller toys. American Plastic Toys Deluxe Work Bench also come with some tools such as hammer, automatic screw driver (which they now call decker, an ode to my B&D automatic screw driver haha), some screws, a cellphone (toy cellphone) and a lot more (which I do not know what it’s called). American Plastic Toys Girls Cookin’ Kitchen comes with kitchen accessories (pots and the liked) and also comes with a plastic phone! COOL!
