Tiger Energy Playground (First Ever in the Philippines!)

When I received an invite to witness the launching of the first ever Energy Playground in the country, I was excited..it was very interesting. Imagine a playground that transforms the kids energy to electrical energy.. I want to know how they did it.. I mean with 5 kids full of energy, we might even have our own source of electrical energy. hahaha

The first ever energy Playground is a collaboration between Tiger energy Biscuits (Kraft)* and the students of Mapua Institute of Technology. The team from Mapua is made up of Electrical Engineering thesis advisers Engr. Michael Pacis, Engr. Conrad Ostia, Engr. Ronald Santiago and Engr. Mark Christian Manuel; and students John Ray Abad, Merryll Capucao, Lynette Dane Legaspi, Jovan Barrago, Jeffrey Adams Uy, Daniel Oliver Calapatia, and Dave Bautista.

The Energy Playground has two playground element (seesaw and merry go round) that turns the energy produced in playing with it into electrical energy that is stored in a battery and can be used up to 36 hours (for every 24 hours play). Although the science behind it is difficult to explain, the mechanism is really simple, each time a child or two played on the seesaw (for example), the up and down energy produced is stored and made into electrical energy.

The first ever Energy Playground is donated to Hospicio de San Jose

“We chose to donate the Tiger Energy Playground to Hospicio de San Jose to remind the children here that they have not been forgotten this Christmas, and that there is reason for them to be hopeful for a bright future. Hopefully soon, the Playground will also be able to help Hospicio in its operations, by helping provide part of its power consumption so that their monthly electricity bill can be reduced.” said Carlo Licuanan, Kraft Foods Category Marketing Manager for Biscuits

I was not able to attend the said event due to menstrual cramps, but I would not want to miss it so I send my sister to cover it for me.. All photos are from her site: Freebies Overload

Tiger Energy Biscuit is the delicious and nutritious biscuit made of wheat and with milk and has the 9 vitamins and 6 minerals of Enermaxx. This unique combination helps give your child the energy he needs for the entire day. The concept of the Tiger Energy Playground merges the benefits kids get from the brand, with the ability to convert energy into a commodity that can benefit a community. – from Press Release

My Circle Of Love Necklace

I almost cried when I first saw it.. it’s like my life showing in front of me.. in all majesty.. it’s like fairy tale.. and if not for the dust and cob webs inside the customs office, I could have wear my glass slippers..

It’s the first time I received something as grand and as meaningful as this.. and I believe each mom should have this.. and grandmothers too..

It’s a moms necklace, Circle of Love, from Something About Silver..

Circle of love is a personalized necklace, a perfect gift for a mom, I believe. As you can see on the photo above, that’s a 1″ Sterling washer style pendant stamped with my kids’ names and it comes along with their birthstones.

You can order Circle of Love necklace at Something About Silver and personalized it all you want. They give options such as the names that will be stamped on the washer, chain type or if you want to include birthstones crystals or not. Circle of Love necklace starts at $42. It will take 1-2 weeks to create your order but with something as good and gorgeous as the one in the photo above, I say, the wait is worth it!

I’m really thankful for this gift that they sent to me.. and wait! you too can have something as majestic as this! Watch out mommies 🙂
