Learn, Save and Enjoy With Private Iris

My kids have varied interests, but they both love books, comic books and magazines. Aside from their monthly magazine subscriptions, a week won't be complete without a trip to the bookstore. They are looking forward to the day when they can buy "lots of books!" Sooner, their little corner at home would start to look like a mini-library.

Private Iris would be a great addition to their reading materials! I'm thrilled to know that by unanimous decision I've WON a 12-issue subscription of Private Iris from Manilamommy's Giveaway! The gift certificate from the Picture Company is also an added bonus.

I've simply answered the question: In what aspects do you encourage your child to be unique and different, and in what aspects do you encourage your child to follow others’ examples?

Here's my winning answer:

Thanks to Mommymanila and Private Iris for this great giveway!

Private Iris is a detective comic book where mystery stories and lessons are embedded in each story. It's a good comic book for the youth today as it centers on the theme about money management In addition, each issue of Private Iris comes with a Sparx code, worth P100. Sparx is about guaranteed savings - it's a "smarter version of the piggy bank.”Cool, huh?!

Now, my kids can learn, enjoy and even save with Private Iris!

Hug Your Kids Everyday

“We need four hugs a day for survival. We need eight hugs a day for maintenance. We need twelve hugs a day for growth.” - Virginia Satir, family therapist

Hugs warm the heart and touches the soul.

I love giving my kids a hug, holding them close to my heart and wrapping them in the warm folds of my arms. It's my way of letting them know that I value and love them. It makes me feel good and I know that it makes my kids happier too.

July 19 is Hug Your Kids Day! It's a global, year-round movement, encouraging parents to hug their kids every day. It's a program founded by Michelle Nichols, who believes that hugs can make a kid's day, and even change his life.

It's good that here in the Philippines, Children's Clusivol supports this movement through the National Yakap Your Child Day. I've supported this movement and joined the thousands of people who have pledged to hug their kids everyday!

I've sent in three pictures at Yakapables.com simply to show my commitment - a picture hugging my daughter, hugging my son and hugging both of them. With sheer luck, our picture was even chosen as one of the Winning Photo for Week 1. I've got to receive a limited edition Yakapable shirt and gift packs.

It feels good to give and receive a hug. Support this movement and hug your kids everyday!
