5 Reasons to LOVE Enchanted Kingdom #EKMoms

You know what? 

Mother’s Month is way better than my birthday month.

Just last month, I was treated to a bunch of experiences and gifts that made me feel uber special.

Meeting Maika through the Fox Life League of Extraordinary Moms was definitely a highlight for me in the month of May.

But my favorite of all of these treats was the Sunday we spent in Enchanted Kingdom for their #EKMoms Event.

But celebrating Diego’s birthday was ALSO another treat that I wont’ forget.

I think the last time we went to Enchanted Kingdom was about two years ago. One thing is for sure, that last time that we took the kids to our favorite theme park here in the Philippines, Nino and I both realized that we were getting old.

No one else I would rather ride this “roller coaster” of life with than this guy.

I think that was the very last time we both would rode a roller coaster. Yes. It’s true. We are that old na.

Instead, we will let the kids ride all the rides. Nino will choose which rides to accompany the children on, and I will patiently sit outside on one of the warm benches happily posting on Instagram or surfing Facebook while I wait.

So for this post, I would like to enumerate 5 reasons why #ILoveEK for you:

It’s a 20-30 minute drive from the metro.

Now, Nino and I don’t mind piling the kids in the car for a long road trip every now and then. In fact, Nino really enjoys the driving part of going somewhere. I think all of our kids do. We are comfortable in the car. BUT Enchanted Kingdom is so close that Gelli doesn’t even fall asleep in the car!

There is something for everyone.

  • 7 themed zones
  • 34 rides and attractions
  • Game stands where we can try our luck
  • Familiar Food and kiosks that are fun and affordable
  • Musical & Entertainment Shows

So while the three kids and Nino ride the “BIG” rides, I can sit in the sun, listen to my music, and wait for them patiently.

I can do this while Gelli is comfortable in the air conditioned Kindermagic Center.

Gelli spent more than an hour in the Kindermagic Center. I loved that it was clean and ready for her!

EK provides accommodations for mothers who are breastfeeding.

This really means that they get it. Mommas have a cool, quiet, clean place to sit while nursing. Guys, there are still places here in the Philippines that are not fully ready nor accommodating for mommas who are breastfeeding. And this space is attached to the Kindermagic Center. Can you say perfection?

Can you say LOVE? This little room off the Kindermagic Center is GOLD!

EK has a Magic Card.

This loyalty card allows guests to enjoy UNLIMITED ADMISSION for a bargain! Plus, Magic Card holders can avail of special benefits, valuable discounts and will also receive special invites to exclusive events too!

Now we can visit EK more often!

EK makes me love the Philippines even more.

Agila offers the FIRST flying movie theater experience in the country. Named after the Philippine Eagle, this simulated, multi-sensory flight soars over the most beautiful and breathtaking destinations of our country, totally biting me with a bit of the “travel bug.”

Here are some of the destinations that you can look forward to in this virtual adventure:

  • Tinuy-an Falls
  • Chocolate Hills
  • Mayon Volcano
  • Banaue Rice Terraces
  • Loboc River
  • Basco Lighthouse
  • Ilocos Sand Dunes

Not only did we all thoroughly enjoy the flight, we also enjoyed the browsing in the gift shop after the ride showcasing Proudly Pinoy products that we could take home!

Even the gift shop has locally made products that are not only cute but very useful. I had a hard time putting this eagle back!

I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Th I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Through this learning exercise with @usapeecphl, I have learned a bit more about these little birds that have bigger breast parts, and thank you Chef @ivoryyat for showing me how easy it is to prepare Greek Lemon Roasted Cornish Hens with Roasted Potatoes.
 
Clean and fresh flavors are perfect for these smaller birds that are rich in protein with zero carbs. Try the recipe in the comments section. I’m sure you’d enjoy it as much as I did!
 
Interested in U.S. Cornish Hens? You can buy them in stores near you. #CornishHen #USCornishHen #PoultryPerfection #CookingWithUSPoultry #USPoultry #USAPEECPHL #ad
@gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @pura @gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @puratosph products that they sent over the other day. Ready to use Bavarian Cream made these Cream Puffs easier than ever. I think we have to figure out how to temper our couverture better…

@mommymundo always has a way of bringing together @mommymundo always has a way of bringing together just what we need, no matter the time of year. Loving these photos of my first boy that were snapped @expomom.

Anyone else thinking about #HolidayPhotos? I am not one of those moms that has it all together before Christmas. It’s usually a mad dash for us at the end of the year, but if it’s anything that the past few years has taught me, it’s that the little things are what makes the Christmas special.

Many of us haven’t been together with the extended family or even our immediate family in so long. That means it’s the perfect time to document.

@nextbymetrophoto will be hosting one last Christmas Marathon family photo shoot before the end of year. Check them out or shoot them a message. They have some cute set-ups.
****GIVEAWAY ALERT*** 10 things I LOVE about @sed ****GIVEAWAY ALERT***

10 things I LOVE about @sedahotels listed here and on FB!

1. Each property has a Signature Dish. If you can’t make it to Bacolod, you can still enjoy Chicken Inasal in any of their properties.

2. Clean Design. So easy to work and play in a space that is light, modern, and clean in design. 

3. Beautiful views. Every chance I got, I would sit outside at @straightupatseda. 

4. Spacious Rooms and Residence Stays. Staying in the Three Bedroom Premier was perfect for our family. 

5. Attentive Service. Everyone was pleasant and accommodating.

6. Centrally Located. If you are thinking of fun things to do in Makati and want a home base, Seda Residences Makati is near a few of the museums, parks, and malls.

7. Work with ease. Internet service is uninterrupted. Meeting rooms are available and easy to book.

8. Relax and Play. From mid-day tubbies with Gelli to, taking advantage of the pool, or the children’s room, the little girl had more than enough things to keep her busy!

9. #FamilyTime. Spending an extended amount of time outside our own space led to laughter, fun conversations, and opportunities to try new things. We were comfortable and rested in the space we were in, which meant more opportunities for us to connect.

10. Homegrown with a Purpose. A Filipino brand that understands the importance of both work and travel, each property is important to the city & province location. Environmentally aware by adopting Mayumi, a Philippine Bald Eagle. 🦅

Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at this time of year? Whole turkeys require serious commitment to cook. #IYKYK But because U.S. Poultry is now available here in the Philippines, that also means preparing turkey is a tad bit easier.
 
Frozen U.S. turkey products are available and ready to cook for people who want to dabble with flavors for this bigger bird but aren't sure how.
 
Thank you to Chef @ivoryyat for putting together a medley of my favorite fall flavors. This combination of apples, sweet potatoes, and maple syrup perfectly compliment  the roasted turkey leg and remind me of flavors and scenes from back in New York. 
 
@usapeecphl l has the highest standards that follow USDA requirements which are certified safe before shipping to the Philippines. Get them in stores near you.
