Since I was a child, as soon as June approaches, I feel thrilled because it's my birth month. I don't eagerly anticipate gifts, but rather the greetings from family and friends. It brings me joy. I am easily pleased. It doesn't take much to make me happy. Whenever I am asked what I want for my birthday, my usual response is "nothing" or "I don't know; I can't think of anything I want or need." I am not materialistic. I am happy. I am healthy. I am blessed with family and true friends. Feeling ko nasa akin na ang lahat and I prefer inner peace. Fancy that! Haha. I find more joy in giving, whether to family, friends, or even strangers. But this time, I said, "Lord, can I give myself a gift this time?" Since a retreat in Batulao is not possible yet, I scheduled a day for myself for a pampering session at the mall. I want to have a massage, facial, manicure/pedicure. I simply wish to unwind and disconnect from the online world for an entire...
How do parents make sure that our children grow up ready to face whatever the future brings? The key to raising a well-rounded child is to establish a solid support system at home so that she grows up satisfied with her achievements and ambitions.
Consider the fact that today's fast-paced lifestyles are demanding more time from parents at work. School environments are also being driven by technological shifts that young kids have to keep up with. This leads children to lifestyles with little focus on physical activity and exercise. All things considered, nutrition has also been compromised in lieu of food that's easy and convenient. As a result, many children grow up facing issues such as obesity, social difficulties, attention problems, and learning deficiencies.
These new challenges that parents have to contend with can be overwhelming. That's not to say , however, that you can't do anything about it. With consistency, dedication, patience, and a little guidance and support from fellow parents, experts and Parentology+, powered by NANKID, it's entirely possible for parents to ensure that their kids are future ready.
The Future Starts at Home
As parents try to navigate the new challenges presented by changing lifestyles and technological advancements, Parentology+ powered by NANKID, is making sure that parents are empowered with the tips that will help reshape their children's future.
Launched earlier this year, Parentology+ is anchored on three pillars--- proper nutrition, active lifestyle, and high social quotient. "The success of Parentology+, gave parents an opportunity to address challenges presented by modern parenting. We would like to go deeper into these issues and really flesh out the importance of these three pillars, as well as give parents the tools to establish this at home," exclaimed Jean Espino, Vice President for Marketing-Premium Milks of Nestle Philippines.
Understanding that parents seek guidance and tips from people they trust, Parentology+ sought the help of various experts to weigh in and give advice for the three pillars, partnered with the NANKID ambassadors.
Cat Arambulo-Antonio is skilled at juggling relationships in different situations, and with clinical psychologist, Dr. Cely Magpantay, the two believe that in order to help your child socialize, it's important to put your child in new situations where they can learn and listen to others. To better encourage kids to socialize with others, Dr. Cely says, "Warm up, be present at first, then be invisible during playtime. Join them during the start of the activity, and eventually let them be. Be a role model to them."
In the event, they have also prepared an activity that lets moms and kids do work together to see what traits their child already possess and how they can further build on them to make them more socially competent.
Nutrition can be challenging for parents, especially when kids need around 3,000 calories a day. However, Joy Sotti and Ms. Aleli Magtibay, Nestle's own Nutritionist, say that it can be done with moderation, balance, and variety of food options. Ms. Aleli further advises parents, "Follow portions by making sure to give a combination of go, grom, and glow foods in every meal, and practice variety, in terms of flavor, texture, color, and food preparation"
For Parentology+, a kitchen set-up was created for kids to be able to select different food in the pantry to create a balanced meal which then be verified by an interactive nutrition guide and scanner.
Playtime may seem like a regular activity for children, but benefits on the child's physical health is hard to ignore. Anton del Rosario and Dr. Edgar Eufemio, an orthopedist specializing in sports medicine, want parents and kids to realize that some activities are better than others. Through a fun goal kicking challenge, kids learned the different traits that are beneficial to their physical development and lifestyle.
When asked how to encourage kids to be more active, Dr. Edgar says, "Give them a taste of success by giving words of encouragement. Be supportive of your kids' activities, so they would just continue doing what they love to do. Also, play with them. if you expect them to be disciplined and grow up a certain way, do it with them."
Parents are encouraged to be a role model for their children, and participate in their various activities, may it be socializing, eating healthier and staying active. Through learning the style of modern parenting, Parentology+, can help parents create a customized model that can help reshape their child's future. These three pillars are essential to the development of a healthy, well-rounded child that's ready to take on the challenges the future holds.
The ambassadors and experts all encourage everyone to drop by Parentology+ to learn more about the three pillars, and how they can make their own home, a home of the future. With the different activities that await participants, exciting prizes such as digital instant cameras, premium tumblers, and other exclusive NANKID items can be won when they post their experience at Parentology+ on social media using the hashtags #NANKID, #PARENTOLOGY, and #ReShapeTheFuture.
Parentology+, powered by NANKID, will also be coming to SM Cebu on August 11-12 and Abreeza Davao on August 25-26.
