Sanicare Play Day

Just last month, I was invited to bring Gelli and Diego to the Sanicare Day of Play in Green Sun Hotel.

It’s not often that I get to bring along both kids with me when learning about different brands available to conscientious Mommas like myself.

Gelli hasn’t accompanied me to an event like this in quite some time, so she was a bit of a firecracker. (Complete with taking Bianca’s microphone and all.) She was so overwhelmed she didn’t know what to start with first!

Keeping this girl off the stage was definitely a challenge! She just wanted to cozy up with Stephanie and Bianca all day!

Of course, I welcome her outgoing behavior, and her ability to take charge of a situation without being shy. That’s what every momma wants, right? We want to raise confident kiddos who are able to speak their minds, but remain respectful. 

Giving Gelli the opportunity to learn with her hands is a fantastic way to stimulate her senses.

Our Play Day made it really easy for me to entertain my two youngest kids (who are 6 years apart) in a fun and educational way, and gifted me, the ability to learn even more about a brand that I already know and love.

Here are some new things I learned about this brand that I have been using for years:

  • Sanicare came out of the love of a husband for his wife.
  • Sanicare uses virgin pulp for a more natural approach in hygiene.
  • Sanicare is a proudly Filipino-family owned and operated company .
  • They have a new line that was launched earlier this year that is lavender scented.
  • There is a difference between their baby wipes and their big kid wipes.
  • Their cucumber line smells delicious.

Truth: I LOVE Sanicare’s toilet seat covers for when we are out or traveling. It’s a must have when I’m moving around with Gelli!

You know why I really enjoyed this day with my little (or not so little) ones?

There was something for everyone.

Baby Corner in full effect!

There was a corner that was set up for infants complete with floor mats, plushies and handprint keepsakes that could be framed to take home.

Perfect keepsake for little hands!

Toddlers were able to explore, run, jump and climb in a space that matched their curiosity and energy level.

Gelli loved this corner! Of course, she took off her shoes so that she could get a better “feel” of things…

And even if the toddlers had the ability to color and design their own Sanicare eco bags, I know two big boys who didn’t mind participating in that activity too.

That’s the beautiful part about what I get to do with my kiddos when we attend events like this together.

I enjoy time spent with other Mommas and my kids get to enjoy their kiddos too.

We attend these types of events together and we all learn something new in the process!

But the best thing about attending these events together, is that I also get to watch my kiddos.

I mean observe where they are at. It’s one thing to interact with your kids when they are at home and you have their full attention.

It’s also another thing to see them move around in a time and space that is a little unfamiliar.

Here are some things I observed about Gelli and Diego during my time with them:

  • Diego is well adjusted and makes the most of things even if he feels unsure of himself.
  • He can pick up where he left off with Sancho (Sabrina’s son) even though they haven’t seen each other in months.
  • Diego is also a “natural” big brother. I saw him helping some of the smaller kids without being prompted. (He also does this with Gelli, but he likes to annoy her as much as he likes to kiss and hug and help her.)
  • Gelli wants to be heard.
  • Gelli is NOT shy despite what she may tell people. ( “I’m shy.” hahahaha.)
  • Gelli gravitates more towards the rough and tumble way of playing than sitting and coloring.
  • Gelli become JELLY when I try to direct her attention to something else that she does not want to do.
  • Gelli CONSTANTLY puts her hands in her mouth. (so we need to have Sanicare wipes with us at all times)

As mommas, we all need things to be easier.

Easier when we are cooking.
Easier when we are working and have to attend to the kiddos.
Easier when we are traveling and there are potential messes everywhere we turn.
Easier when caring for a newborn who we just brought home.
Easier to keep germs at bay for kiddos who are constantly putting things in their mouths.
Easier. Mommas just need things to be easier.

Sanicare makes it really easy for me to take care of my family in a safe and hygienic way.

And how easy was it for me to put together everyone’s sanitary kits for the beginning of school with all of our goodies from the event?

Thank you Sanicare for having us! We had a blast!

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.
