Disney On Ice Presents Dare To Dream – Slumber Party

Disney On Ice Presents Dare to Dream

The countdown to Christmas has begun.  That means the countdown to this year’s ice-spectacular show has started as well.   What’s Christmas without Disney On Ice, right?!  This year, Disney On Ice brings us a collection of Disney Princess Stories that includes modern day princesses, Rapunzel and Tiana.  The eternally elegant Cinderella and the first-ever princess Snow White will also have their own stories to share in the show.

Disney On Ice Presents Dare To Dream won’t be shown in Manila until December 25 but my own little princess is already eagerly waiting to be dazzled by princesses gracefully gliding on ice.

Classic meets contemporary in Disney on Ice presents Dare to Dream! Laugh at Disney’s hilarious hair-raising escapade, Tangled, as Rapunzel; her unlikely companion, Flynn; and Maximus, the Captain of the Guard’s determined horse; embark on an uproarious journey that takes adventure to new lengths! Travel to the enchanted forest with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as Snow White escapes from the Evil Queen in her search for her one true love. Watch as fanciful dreams become reality as Cinderella meets her Prince Charming with a glass slipper fit for an unforgettable fantasy come true. And boogie to the tune of bayou in a magical, musical journey that celebrates the story of the Princess and the Frog with Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen.

Three months is a long wait – especially for little girls who adore princesses – but Disney On Ice makes waiting a lot less agonizing with Disney On Ice Dare To Dream Slumber Party, a series of Disney-themed kiddie events.  Of course I couldn’t turn down the invitation to join the launch last September 15.  And, of course, I tagged along my own little princess.  She was practically bouncing off the walls when she found out that we were going to meet Cinderelly!

Dare To Dream – Slumber Party

Upon reaching the Gateway Activity Center, the first thing that caught my daughter’s eyes was the wishing well beside the stage.  She wanted to throw a coin inside and make a wish!  While waiting for the event to start, all the kids were given coloring pages to keep them entertained.  The princess makeover kiddie salon was also open for li’l girls who wanted to be made up like princesses complete with tiaras.  Sure enough, my li’l princess wanted a makeover.  She didn’t want any makeup though – not that she needed any anyway. 🙂  A few gems and a tiara were enough to make her feel like a princess.

The slumber party started with the host asking the kids to draw their dream for the future on a piece of paper and to drop the paper into a wishing well.  My li’l girl wants to be a paediatrician when she grows up but drew Elsa instead.  Perhaps, because it was a Disney event and Elsa is her current fave princess.  After wishing that their dreams would come true, the kids were treated to an interactive storytelling.  This was followed soon after by the highlight of the afternoon – a meet and greet with a Disney’s Cinderella!

Cinderella was a very special guest in the Slumber Party but I think that the most important guests of all were the beneficiaries of the Make A Wish Foundation!

Jollibee Makes Grandparents Feel Loved

 photo Jollibee-Grandparents-Day.png

Whoever said that Jollibee is just for kids?  Last Saturday, Jollibee proved that this Pinoy family fave is for kids of all ages – from 1 to 100!  Lolos and Lolas in different homes for the elderly across Manila and nearby provinces were given a jolly treat.  I was able to join Jollibee in honoring the grandparents at Kanlungan ni Maria in Antipolo City.  It certainly was a worthwhile Saturday morning.

 photo jollibeewithelderly3.jpg

Giving the elderly a Jollygood time!

 photo jollibeewithelderly2.jpg

Awwww….isn’t Jollibee the sweetest?

 photo jollibeelolapina.jpg

Even her bad knees can’t stop Nanay Pina from grooving with Jollibee. 🙂 Ten years ago, she told me she still used to teach others how to dance. If you see her at Kanlungan ni Maria, do buy one of the ponytails she sews. She proudly said that she doesn’t wear eyeglasses when she’s sewing!

 photo jollibeewithelderly4.jpg

It’s a bit disheartening that some of our elderly have been abandoned or neglected by their own family. It is, however, inspiring that despite all they have gone through, the Lolos and Lolas in these homes have so much hope and joy.

Kanlungan ni Maria provides a home environment to the elderly. Nurturing staff and volunteers provide them with love, care, and attention giving them a chance to live better and dignified lives. The home helps locate families and relatives for the purpose of reconciliation. Those who have no family members or relatives stay in Kanlungan ni Maria where all their daily needs are well-provided for.

The lolas and lolas in Kanlungan ni Maria have so many wonderful stories to share. Some may bring tears to your eyes but most of them have only joyful memories to share. Show them some love by visiting them at #17 Lanzones Road, Nayong Silangan, Antipolo City. Call 650-8102 / 0915-6002631 or email [email protected] to coordinate your visit with their caring staff.

For being so sweet to the elderly, this big lovable bee gets a kiss from Mama. 🙂

Red Hot Sale Finds for Fashionista Moms

Hooray!!!  We’re finally seeing more of Mr. Sun after more than a week of intermittent rain showers!  Here’s something else to brighten your days the entire rainy month of August – the Robinsons Red Hot Sale!

 photo RedHotSale2014poster.jpg

On one of my very rare mom-me-time, I was able to go to Robinsons Galleria on the first weekend of the Red Hot Sale. I was able to check out furniture, kids’ apparel, jewelry, eyeglasses, clothes, and shoes. Here’s a rundown of some shops I checked out and my fab finds:

Freeway/Ensemble

This goes first on my list since this was where I got my best (read: most budget-friendly) finds.  See the bolero with a design by Vicente Manansala on it? Would you believe that I got it for only P99.50?! It was further marked down from its tag price of P199.  Such a steal, really!  Even if you’re on a tight budget, you could still update your wardrobe with blouses that go as low as P 199.50 and dresses at P599.

 photo RHSFreewayfinalcollage.jpg

Unica Hija

Though not all items are on sale, you’ll still be able to find stylish blouses at 50% off.  Blouses on sale range from P 395 to P 595. I also saw several slacks on sale one of which I really wanted to try on but was short on time.  I hope it’ll still be there when I go back next weekend. It’s not often you get a good pair of slacks for only 500 pesos.

Karimadon

In need of more dresses?  Check out their sale rack.  The blue shift dress with matching bolero is not at only P599 – down by more than 50% from its original price of P1999.  If you have a little more extra shopping money, you may want to grab one of their latest designs as well.  🙂  And speaking of design, Karimadon also has an ongoing contest where you can stand to win up to P10,000 and to see your design in Karimadon’s Holiday Collection.  Check out www.facebook.com/karimadon/fashion for more details.

ResToeRun

P500 for comfy colourful Marie Claire wedges!!! Need I say more?  I’m sure that’ll have you running to ResToeRun already. Stocks are limited so better run fast.  I would have grabbed a couple of pairs but they, unfortunately, did not have them in size 5 (boo-hoo).  Also on sale are Salvatos foldable flip flops which now cost only P300. In case you get caught in a heavy downpour, having a pair of these would save your precious stilettos.

 photo RHSResToeRun.jpg

I was also able to check out Chez Le Furne, Sarabia Optical, OshKosh B’Gosh, Mothercare, and Toys ‘R Us. If I hadn’t promised hubby and the kids a movie treat that afternoon, I’d have probably scoured every shop in the mall. J Visit Tottering Mama again next week to see what I fab sale items I found from those stores.

I’m pretty sure you’re also now excited to check out what’s on Red Hot Sale.  Before you head to your fave Robinson Mall, add more mileage to your shopping fund by joining Robinsons contest on Instagram.  It’s a simple share and tag contest that might score you some GCs.  (link to instagram) After shopping, drop by the Robinsons Red Hot Sale booth for a chance to win a bottle of hand soap or goodies from URC.

Don’t let the rainy season dampen your spirit.  Check out the Robinsons Red Hot Sale to look fabulously hot despite the gloomy weather.  🙂
