What my kids are like, and how to raise your child/children in this day and age.

Sati’s Shopping Money

The little girl knows where her stuff came from.. Whenever you asked her where the dress or the shoes came from, she would answer Nang or sometimes Ni. That’s her term for Ninang (godmother).

This little girl is so lucky to have fairy godmothers.. Fairy in terms of the look (eherm eherm) and also in showering her gifts.

She got so many shopping money (mas madami pa kesa sa akin! LOL) and she really enjoyed shopping for her clothes and receiving gifts from her ninangs.

The one she wearing on the photo, we bought from her shopping money. Yeah she really knows how to project and work that look LOL

But above her cuteness and posing, it’s heart warming to hear her utter words like Nang and Ni.. It’s just show that at that young age, she already knows how to appreciate the people who loves her. And she knows very well what clothes come from her Ninangs 🙂

Finding the Right Summer Camp

To find the right summer activities or summer camp for your child can be quite challenging. There are a lot of summer activities available and brochures are handed out to parents to inform them about what the summer camp has to offer. But there are important considerations to keep in mind when choosing the right summer camp for your child. You need to take note of the following before coming up with a decision:

Session duration, like how long will the summer camp take place
The programs included in the summer camp are also important because you are sending your child to summer camp to gain additional knowledge or enhance their talents or skills.
Summer camp facilities such as toilets, would this kind of facility be made easily accessible for your child? There are summer camps done in the woods, and it means your child should learn how to use outdoor toilets.
Price of the entire summer camp program is another important consideration. You need to know what are included in the summer camp so that you can do necessary adjustments in your budge

In finding out essential information about the summer camp, parents can check the camp publications; brochures are also available as well as videos. Most summer camps would also have their online services hence you can check for details about the program. You may also ask a parent whose child has participated in the particular summer camp program.

Aside from merely relying on what you read on the brochures or internet or depend on what others may say about the summer camp; you may want to check it out yourself together with your child. You can speak directly with the staff involved in the summer camp program, and then you can assess it from there. The people you have met on the summer camp are most like the same people that your child would interact with.

Summer Fun Ideas

According tot he news, summer has officially started. Yes, this late. Actually, for the kids, summer started as soon as the school is over. And for those who are not used to doing nothing, summer should be about learning new things.

For our dear parents, here are some summer fun ideas for your kids:

Enroll the kids to some adult jobs such as letting them experience what it is to be one of the crew of their favorite fast food. They got to have their uniform, their responsibility and they would be taught about camaraderie. But don’t expect them to wear Medical scrubs, since these kind of jobs are not medical related.

You can also try physical activities such as swimming, basketball and Taekwando.

Classes that are inclined to arts is a fun summer activity too. This is best for kids who are very talented and are interested on arts.

There is so much thing that we can do to make our kids summer more fun and worthwhile. I will be posting more related articles soon.

And please take them out of the TV.
