Malabon zoo

It was sunday of june 2010(i cant remember the date) after we hear a mornig mass and have our lunch we go straight at Malabon Zoo right behind the Potrero Elementary School,i was excited because when you see some clips of malabon zoo in tv i might say the place is interesting,hah maybe thats because of the modern technology they can adjust the colors,or find the perfect spot before you air it on tv.i was a little bit dis-appointed sa entrance fee pa lang i thinks a little bit too much for 200 pesos but anyways since andun na tumuloy na kami.as we go inside much more of my dis-appointment the whole zoo was so small too accompany some animals,you just tour the zoo for 20 minutes and your done and the place has awful smell specially sa cage ng tiger and the facilities is not that good the chairs and table where u can rest and eat was placed in the middle of the zoo in front of tiger cage(and sana yung mga personnel nila and tour guide was wearing proper dress naman)!my eldest was dis-appointed too,sabi nya"mama sana sa manila zoo na lang ulit tyu pumunta!" but she started to have some interest na din when the caretaker has the snake out and let the visitor see as the snake eat the chicks,kaya lang umiyak nung kinakain na yung sisiw,then later yung uranggutang na yung nilabas ng caretaker named marimar daw.you can post for the picture kasma yung uranggutang kaya lang may bayad na 50.00 pesos.the whole trip was a new experience to us but i might ask my self,to visit again? ill think about it =(

 

Museo Pambata

We went to the place one week before the classes start ,we arrive 30 minutes before 12 noon,the desk receptionist who issues tickets told us that there will be a lunch break from 12:00 pm to 1 pm and that we can go inside now and leave for lunch then come back again.so i just decided to wait na lang as we wait we took some picture of that old huge broken down helicopter, still a part of the museum's attractions.

As soon as we were inside, I started snapping pictures of my kids. Our first stop, the Filipiniana section. Lots of interesting things here but there's not much a small kid can do.in the other room there was a huge aquarium,a mangrove and nipa hut!a replica of church and filipino heroes room.

There are lots of good stuff there on the 2nd floor. The human body is the first exhibit. There's a huge face with carpeted tongue sticking out welcoming curious onlookers. You can pass through the mouth to get inside but myka was squeamish and didn't want to get in Inside, there are huge representations of body parts. Kids will learn the purpose of each organs with plastic veins protruding.

Our next stop is where My  kids started to enjoy our trip. We passed by play stores with props to match. there was a market,a kubo,carinderia where my daughter stayed longer.there was a fire truck and a pharnacy.next we have the Science section and the mini library!mykie was really amazed as we enter the science room they enjoyed the piano!

the whole visit is great,they really enjoy,ate mykie was crying pa when were about to leave the premises! it was very educational tour i really suggest this place to visit. they are open  tuesday to saturday and closed every monday! their entrance fee was reasonable for 100 pesos!

Little Mr. and Ms. United Nation

My eldest daughter Mykie Yesha was chosen to represent her section for Little Ms.UN,The country that was assigned to her was Vietnam,at first i was hesitant kasi the national costume of vietnam is hindi gnun kaganda,to make the story short i ended up beading my daughter's costume for the event,hehehe!
I have done that beadworks for almost a week,the design has lots of details,puyatan to the highest level ^__^      In The end of the Event itself  I was not Dis-appointed she Bagged the 1st Runner Up for Little Ms.UN
not bad kasi 8 sila naglaban laban,3girls sa grade1, 2 girls sa grade2 and 3 girls sa grade 3!and yes some contestant are older than my daughter the one who got the Little Ms.UN award was at grade 3 who is 3 years older than my Mykie! the puyatan sa beadworks worth it,I've got my kunswelo nmn nanalo si ate mykie
though i was dis-appointed in some way kasi yung 1st runner up walang thropy sana nag effort yung school na mabigyan ng trophy ang runner up (actually there was no 2nd or 3rd runner up,only 1st runner up then little ms.un na,not bad for my baby) here is some of pictures of the event!

Congrats ate mykie,mama is very proud of you!!!!
