4 KIDS Review

Lactacyd Mums and Tubs

Gelli loves tubby time.

IMG_7797

Come to think of it, ALL my kids still LOVE tubby time. If given the choice-bubble bath or quick shower…which one would you choose?

Even when Gelli was an infant, we enjoyed the quiet time we would have together when I would give her a relaxing bath, complete with Andre Boccelli playing in the background. Lactacyd was part of that bath routine. It was gentle and light, and easy to find because it is available in drug stores and grocery stores too. After her bath, I enjoy giving Gelli her massage and getting her ready for nap or even for bedtime at night. Lactacyd Baby Bath was good for her as an infant because it can be used as both a soap AND a shampoo and has mild baby friendly ingredients so you can use it every day. Most especially, it has the ingredients of Lactoserum and Lactic Acid which also helps with minor skin irritations and infections.

Lactacyd

Lactacyd is safe and easy to use when bathing your baby. It smells fresh and is used by many hospitals as the soap of choice for a baby’s first bath.

What I didn’t know is that when Gelli turned one year old, is that we should have switched over to Toddlertubs. Consistent with the Lactacyd Baby Bath which we were using before, Toddlertubs is hypoallergenic, has Lactoserum and Lactic acid, just like the baby bath, but it comes in two different scents. Toddlertubs also has extra moisturizers and a thicker consistency, which is nice when you are bathing a wriggly toddler. Screen shot 2014-03-09 at 12.24.23 PM Lactacyd recently launched their Anti-Amoy Pawis campaign which arms your toddler with a longer lasting sweet scent but is still hypoallergenic and gentle to your child’s skin. Now that summer is almost upon us, switching over to Lactacyd toddler wash might actually be a good idea! As a gift to my readers I will be raffling off three gift packs like this one that Lactacyd shared with me. It comes in a cute little zippered pouch and not only has ToddlerTubs and Baby Bath, but it also has feminine wash and wipes for mommy as well.

Lactacyd Gift Pack for three lucky readers.

    my daughter loves to pretend she’s a mermaid every time she takes a bath. she loves to soak on the basin with bubbles and splashes her feet as if it’s a tail.

    • michelle says

      March 10, 2014 at 9:27 am

      Hi Yen!
      Pretend play is so important for our toddlers! Bath time is a great time opportunity for teaching too!
      Thanks for stopping by! Good luck 🙂

    my baby bella,loves singing and sometimes playing with her rubber ball while bathing!

    • michelle says

      March 10, 2014 at 11:27 am

      Hi Sherry Ann!
      Singing in the bath (and the shower) is big in our home too!
      Gelli loves bath toys as well. I try and clean the bath toys once a week by soaking in a capful of bleach. Then I rinse off and store in a mesh net so that they can dry. This prevents them from molding.
      Good luck!

      Bath time is so important in setting the routine for having fun, and staying healthy!

    My toddler loves going into the timba (bucket) to soak for a little while just before we dry up! She can’t move around anymore since she’s big but still insists to climb in each and every time!:)

    • michelle says

      March 10, 2014 at 1:33 pm

      Thanks Rocel!

      Isn’t it amazing how when the are small they still like to squeeze themselves into small spaces too?

      Good Luck!

    My son looks forward to bath time always. He never forgets to ask that his toy boat be brought with him during bath time. He also just started to ask for soap and apply it on himself.

    • michelle says

      March 10, 2014 at 8:41 pm

      Hi Theresa,
      I love it when the kids know the routine already. And if that routine happens to include a toy or two-that’s fine by me. Even better that you are teaching him to be independent to wash himself!
      Good Luck!

    Hi Michelle

    My daughter is 2years old and 6months.. During her bath time gusto nya na puno ng bubbles ung tub nya at ayaw nya na pinapatay ung faucet. Hay sayang talaga ang water.. Pero she is so happy talaga sa bubbles.. Ubusan talaga ng baby bath.. Kaya I’m hoping for a slot to win.. hehe.. BIg help yan sa bulsa.. 🙂

    • michelle says

      March 12, 2014 at 9:55 am

      Thanks for stopping by Sena.
      Who doesn’t love bubbles? Even I love bubbles in the bath 🙂 You can justify the amount of water you feel you are wasting by all the learning that takes place in the bath tub. It’s really a wonderful time for the little ones.
      Good Luck!

      Hi Yhie!
      Thanks for stopping by! Shower time is even more fun when the kids use their imagination! Would you believe that I have let my kids shower in the rain when it’s not so cold? That’s a different kind of fun all together!!

    My daughter loves her bathtime. We put her in a batya and she always feels like she’s swimming while bathing!

      Hi Erin!
      Thanks for stopping by. If the batya is big enough and baby girl is small enough…she just might be able to swim!! ha ha ha ha ha!!
      Good Luck!

    My child loves to play with her bath toys in a tub filled with warm water! She also loves the brushy brush brush time (the song of Elmo)!

    • michelle says

      March 13, 2014 at 1:13 pm

      Hi Sheena.
      Agree. Bath water shouldn’t be too hot or too cold…warm is best. You are less likely to dry your baby’s skin out and of course we don’t want her to catch a cold!
      Good Luck!

  21. Esperanza Mendoza says

    March 13, 2014 at 2:27 pm

    My daughter loves bath time especially when she’s in the bath tub while she’s playing with her rubber duckies! It was so fun to watch her enjoying her self.

    • michelle says

      March 13, 2014 at 5:47 pm

      Hi Esperanza,
      I used to sing the rubbery duckie song to all my kids while they were in the tub. I grew up listening to Ernie sing it on Sesame Street 🙂
      Good Luck!

I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes toget I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes together so easily. When Sandra Cheng shared that she was willing to share more about her benefits of @easecox.ig essential oils with our buddies, the team and I quickly brainstormed a program flow that was in line with this opportunity to learn. 

Grateful for @monicaemanzano who was so game to share a movement segment from @flowretreats. She thought of @curatedgoodfood who generously shared preservative free dimsum which goes perfectly with our healthy sammies from @h2v2partyneedsandcatering. @komida.foods has been a consistent supporter of our mission and events since last year. We are grateful for their continued mission of providing healthy snacks for our events!

We opened with @joanngue.mlg pranayamic breath work, moved on to a yoga flow with Monica, followed by mindfulness with @enzoarmovit, a gratitude circle, and then esssential oils for beginners with Sandra from Easecox Philippines.

What a wonderful morning spent with our Buddies in BGC! 

Thank you to everyone who made this event so easy to conceptualize and mount! 

PS. If you would like to be a buddy. Please PM me. Bugsy and I are so blessed to have one another and I love that we get to do things like this together!
Colors. My first girl got to go on her first med Colors. 

My first girl got to go on her first medical mission in October. 

Gosh, they grow up so fast. 

We bought her new scrubs for the trip. It feels like yesterday when I was buying her green skirts and black Mary Janes for grade school.

Now she’s all grown. On her way to becoming a doctor.
At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado turned to me and said “Mom, thank you so much for bringing me here. I love Frozen.” 

As Gelli continues to grow up, some things remain the same. Her love for princesses, her love for her siblings, having fun with the family, and music and dance in any form. 

What an enchanted evening we had visiting the Samsung Theater in @_circuitmakati to watch the FROZEN film in CONCERT with a LIVE ORCHESTRA. From the moment Gelli hear the orchestra’s accompaniment to the film, to the vocalists who sang along, she was mesmerized.

Thank you @dotdigitalph for inviting Gelli to experience this up close and personal!! She had a blast!
