She Is Growing Really Fast

Sati is growing up really fast. Most of her dress are above her knee already, and most of her house dress can no be classified as a house blouse. Good thing that most of girls clothes I bought for her are garterized. Even if she outgrew her clothes, it would still fit her.

It would still take more time before we bought new set of clothes for her, maybe next year or on her 2nd birthday. OH! I’m talking about her 2nd birthday! Time flies so quickly, I can still remember how emotional I was knowing I’ll be having a baby girl.. now she’s a big girl already, who really nows what she wants and how to get it.

When it comes to clothes, she likes colorful prints, more flowers, the better. She also like Hello Kitty, so we’re planning to buy more Hello Kitty clothes for her. Her Ninang Seiko gave her Hello Kitty play shirts and she really appreciate the shirt. That’s one of her favorites, aside from the many clothes that her Ninangs gave her, and she knows which is which (the one from her ninang and the one from us).

Zoobles Surprise!

My sister was the one who introduced us to Richwell. No, she’s not working there, it just so happens that she got to know their store in Market Market and the numerous Barbie that went on sale back then. Other sale items we’re Hot Wheels and Mega Blocs, so just imagine how happy I was when I learned about their warehouse sale in Libis. Since then (that was in 2006), we have been going there every year (2-3 times). I have hoard (yes that term exactly) Hot Wheels, Chicco Toys and Mega Blocs from their warehouse sale every year.

When I was asked to review a product from them, I was ecstatic! May I present to you, ZOOBLES!

From their Press Release:

Zoobles are a collectable range of colorful characters that pop open when you least expect
it. They have finally popped their way here in the Philippine shores as Europlay Distributor Co. Inc will bring it here theZoobles fever!

From the manufacturers of amazing toys like Bakugan, Tech Deck, and Liv comes Zoobles, the collectable colorful balls that spring to life and magically transform into characters when placed on their Happitat. When petted, the Zoobles react by blinking their eyes, wagging their tails, wiggling their ears and more. There three different areas in the mysterious world of Zoobles Isles, Petagonia, Seagonia and Azoozia. Each Zoobles comes with its own Happitat which includes a hot spot for its popping open activation

“Zoobles are amazing, magical creatures that are incredibly fun,” says Phil Hooper, marketing director for Spin Master UK. “Not only do Zoobles stand out because of their outstanding design and unique transformation, but with over a 150 different Zoobles to collect, little girls are going to go crazy for these quirky characters.”

Jaffa was sent to us to surprise us an dbring fun to the kids.. moms and kids, please meet Jaffa:

Here, Jaffa is “sleeping” inside the Happitat (I’m assuming that’s happy and habitat in one word..)

From the looks of it, Zoobles are for girls and as describe in the box, it is for 4+ years old. But even so, I still handed it to my one year old girl, who was thrilled to see a “ball” and was more surprised when the ball comes in to life! Her reaction was priceless… of course, we never let her play with it alone.

My boy’s initial reaction was “ ay parang Bakugan!‘ (and as stated in the Press Release above, Zoobles and Bakugan came from the same toy manufacturer). They were also surprised that upside down, the toy won’t fall. That led to lengthy discussion about magnet.. so yes, aside from fascinating, this toy can be educational too.

I can’t wait for Sati to grow up so we can start collecting Zoobles, 150 balls would be so much fun!

Here are some of the Zoobles that Mommy and Sati is eying:

The Crib And The Play Pen

Well, not yet but these two baby items are already on the to go list. It’s not Spring cleaning, rather back to school cleaning, before I start being busy reading and writing about the best acne cream. I’ll be making room for the boys’ clutter (read: notebooks, books, bags and study table). Aside from that, I’ll be cleaning the closet and see what are the items that will make it on the “to go list”. This would be baby clothes such as onesies and small items, but not Sati’s clothes, that, it will never make it on the list.

Some of the baby items we have here, I already gave to my helpers last year. If I had known they would left me with a month salary advance, I would have gave the stuff to other people who deserves it (reminds me not to be too kind to this kind of people).

Anyways, we still have a dozen or more clothes here and some toys (the more expensive one).. will be sorting them out too and clean those that will make it on the “to go list”.

Oh! The Mega blocks will never make it on the list LOL
