FlattenMe Personalized Water Bottle

FlattenMe is very kind to sent  us this Swishy Tail water bottle for Ms. Burrito.  As I have expected, Mr. Burrito was a bit  disappointed that he did not get one but I told him that would buy him one so he will have   his own.  My daughter was very excited that even though she has hot lunch today, she filled   her  water bottle with juice  and brought it to the school.  She said  she wants to  show it to her classmates and friends.  

This stainless steel personalized water bottle can be personalized so your child can  drink their favorite beverage in style.  It is BPA free and there are 8 designs to  choose from to customize it.  MY son  would  really love the "Rockin Out" design as he love to sing and dance and that he wants to be a rock star someday lol.

Dora the Explorer

My kids are no longer  interested in Dora but one day out of boredom, my daughter  drew this.

I remember those times when they were still  into watching the Dora show.    I would hear the "Do-do-do-do-Dora, Do-do-do-do-do-Dora... Dora, Dora, the Explorer..." song lol.

Anyway, I find it interesting that  even if she doesn't watch the show anymore,   Dora's image still lingers in her mind.  These two are growing up so fast.  I wish I can hold on to their innocence lol.

Funkiest Deck Chair Designs of the Summer

If you have a nice garden, you probably want to use it in order to enjoy the sunny weather. What better way to relax is there than sitting by the pool on your favorite deck chair? A lot of people are looking to have the trendiest and funkiest designs when it comes to deck chairs like the ones you can find at www.yescomusa.com.   If you are in the market for some cool, new designs this summer, here are a few suggestions.

1. Eco deck chair
Being green is really cool at the moment so, if you are part of that movement, you could show your support with a couple of eco designer deck chairs. You can get them in a variety of styles, but the principle is basically the same in that they are made using natural or recycled material. More often than not, the wood is recycled, the canvas is made from natural cotton and vegetable inks are used for prints.
2. Wideboy deck chair
Not all chairs have to be designed for a single person. If you have someone who you want to lounge around with, then the wideboy deck chair is a perfect choice. Like the eco design, you can find plenty of colors and prints to suit your preferences, but all of them are made wide enough to fit two people.
3. Deck chair + stool combo
This is the ultimate comfort combination. When you feel like really lounging, this deck chair features a vintage style that also includes a top to protect your head from the sun and, more importantly, an extra stool that folds out so you can recline all the way back.
When you are looking for a few new pieces to decorate your backyard with, visit  http://www.yescomusa.com and you will be pleasantly surprised with all the variety and quality you experience.

Tiny Soles Kamik Winter Boots

My children's school is just 5-minute walk from our home so 95% of the time, we  walk  even  on Winter times.  Having said that, I have to ensure  that they have a comfortable stuff to bundle up during Winter from head to toe so they won't get cold.

TinySolesI am very fortunate to have given a chance to review one of the high-end  winter boots  from Tiny Soles.  I love it that they   also slipped a  handwritten  note which for me  is the sweetest thing.  It only shows how  they truly  care for their customers.
Tiny Soles sent me a pair  of  
Kamik Rocket2 Stripes Navy Kids for my son.  This  is built in the US but it is made in Canada.  The materials they used is a combination of 600 Denier Nylon  on the upper part of the shoe  for maximum flexibility with a waterproof rubber bottom.

As you can see in the photo above, it is highly insulated with a removable 8mm Zylex Liner to ensure that  those feet will   be warmed and dry.  It also  feature an adjustable  corded cuff to seal out snow.

 The adjustable midfoot velcro strap  aids to  have a perfect fit.  The flexible rubber soles is great to maximize traction which is very important  for us  as we walk during winter times to and from home and school.

This Kami Rocket2 Winter Boots is  perfect for snow, slush and cold days! My little man loves it, it fit his feet perfectly and he said that it snug his feet comfortably.

This pair of Kamik boots cost $54.  You can  buy it from their website by visiting the link I have provided above.    To get in touch with them, LIKE Tiny Soles in Facebook.  Thank  you so much Tiny Soles for the great opportunity you have give me, it is  a  pleasure working with you!

Plan for her Tree

Ms. Burrito suggested that we should put a round seating area under her tree.  I must admit that even when it is very hot outside, you can   lay  down underneath the tree and it's  relaxing.


I told her that when the tree gets a little taller, we might do that.

Score High in School with the Most Excellent Maths Tuition

Math is a subject which can be very easy if one gets a good grasp of it, and extremely difficult if one does not understand how a certain calculation is supposed to be made. Hence, having your child take Math's tuition classes can be very beneficial for him and help him not only to score high marks in school, but also to enjoy solving different problems in the subject.

There is a reason that tuition in Singapore is gaining prominence all over the world. Children who take such classes show a marked improvement in school and their grasp of different subjects improves to a great extent. The most important aspect of such tuition classes is the fact that a child is taught Math in a manner that is enjoyable to him. Because a classroom atmosphere can get quite boring and monotonous, a child tends to lose interest in the subject. A private tutor for A Math's tuition and other level of math can help a child learn in the most interesting way, and it would be seen that he has had an actual understanding of the particular topic that is being taught.

Enrolling your child for Math tuition is a great idea because he gets to learn the subject at home, in a comfortable atmosphere, without any distractions from other individuals. Therefore, it gives him the opportunity to communicate any problem areas that he may have. Moreover, a tutor provides one on one interaction with a student. The entire focus is given to your child so that he can learn in a more effective way.

Because Math is an important subject that gets increasingly difficult as one gets older, it is important to inculcate interest in the subject from childhood. An early understanding of basic Math can help a child immensely even as he grows older and takes on more difficult and complex problems in the subject. 
Having your child take tuition classes helps him to improve his performance in school without him having to give up a lot of his free time. Putting in just a few hours each day on the subject would allow him to get the required practice to solve different kinds of sums. Tutors can come to your house at a time that is most convenient for you. 

One of the most essential aspects of learning a subject is being taught by the right teacher. In school, a child is taught a subject along with many other children and focus is not always given to one child’s problem areas. This is why tuition classes play such an important role in the education of our children. They are able to communicate with your child and provide the required practice that he needs. By looking into all his problem areas and individual understanding of different concepts, a tutor can get him to learn Math in the most successful manner.

While your child might be able to get by in Math without a tutor, enrolling him for tuition in Singapore can actually help him attain excellent marks in the subject. Thus, such classes are highly recommended for all kinds of students.
