Summer Fun Outdoors with Licealiz Shampoo

Majority of the children today are tech-savvy and most of the time, glued to the glowing mobile and tablet screens. However, this does not mean that we cannot let them experience the joys of riding a bike, playing tag, and lots of other activities that kids used to love doing outdoors, especially during the summer break.

While it is important to let your kids have fun under the sun, certain precautions must still be set to ensure that they are safe from harm and discomfort. Licealiz Head Lice Treatment Shampoo, together with several moms from various walks of life shared tips on how to arm their kids for a fun and safe day outdoors!

Protecting them from environmental risks

  • The outdoors can also cause harm to your kid if you do not take safety measures to avoid possible natural risks. “Of course, I worry that they could get diseases especially with the recent measlesoutbreak, but thankfully my kids are vaccinated, and that takes away a lot of stress and worry for us,”says mommy of three and children’s book author Teresa Dumadag.

  • If your kids will run around in the afternoon, be sure to put sunblock to protect them from harmful UV
    rays and bring mosquito repellent to keep dengue-carrying mosquitoes away. Mommy Laila, co-founder
    of lifestyle brand Elements of Tomorrow and mom of one, also says that it is important to dress
    according to the weather: “We let our child, Sid Nayon, play freely in nature whether it’s sunny or rainy.
    So of course we dress him accordingly so he is well-protected.”

Being prepared for emergencies.

  • For Mommy Teresa, prevention is better than cure. Whenever she and her husband take their three boys to the park, she always makes sure they are ready for whatever accidents and emergencies that may occur. “Just recently, my eldest son fell while running and wounded his knee. Thankfully, we had wet wipes to clean the wound and found a restroom he could wash it in,” she shared.

 

  • Meanwhile, Mommy Kaye, a part-time working mom with a three-year-old, says that she already has a bag of essentials prepared for whenever she goes out with her son, Riley: “The contents of the backpack include a small towel, wipes, alcohol, mosquito repellent patches, a bottle of water and an extra shirt.” Being prepared for emergencies can also give you that peace of mind and will let you enjoy alongside your kid.

Teaching your kids proper hygiene

  • While putting several safety measures for your kids is important, nothing is more effective than teaching your kids to take care of themselves. Mommy Heart Calimlim, virtual assistant and freelance writer, says that she makes sure to explain to her kids the importance of proper hygiene: “It’s for their own sake. Kung hindi ko sila tuturuan na alagaan sarili nila, baka ikapahamak pa nila at lalo silang magkasakit (It’s for their own sake. If I don’t teach them to take care of themselves, it will cause more harm and they’re more likely to catch diseases).”

 

  • Washing hands right after playing is also an effective way to avoid germs. According to Mommy Kaye, “There’s always a feeling of paranoia, if I may call it, because playing outside brings a lot of germs, especially now that he’s in a phase where he keeps on biting his nails.” This is why right after playing, one of the first things Mommy Kaye does is to make Riley wash his hands to avoid illnesses caused by these germs.

Keeping it consistent at home

  • To support her son’s active and adventurous personality, Mommy Laila believes that protecting him is a daily and consistent thing: “We see to it that our kid is healthy in terms of their food. We only feed him plant-based and organic food so that when he plays outside, he’s not prone to sickness and he has strength.” Promoting a healthy diet as well as regular vitamin intake can build up your child’s strength so that he is ready to face everything when he plays outdoors.

 

  • Your kid should not be the only one being protected, but also the whole family. Mommy Teresa shared,
    There was a time when we had a maid who had lice. She was the one taking care of my son so he also
    got head lice and so we had to buy head lice shampoo for the both of them.” Shampoo specifically made
    for head lice infestation is the best treatment you can give to your child.

In case of head lice infestation, use Licealiz Head Lice Treatment Shampoo twice a week for two weeks, and once a week for prevention
of head lice recurrence. That way, your child is safe from head lice infestation, especially when they
interact with other kids.

At the end of the day, it is always our child’s happiness that we care about. Mommy Heart shared, “Ever since we started letting our kids play outside, I always see them happy and they really look forward to play time.”

Taking the time to spend a whole day of playing outdoors with your kids is also a great opportunity to bond and of course, there is no better way for parents to show their love for their kids than to spend quality time with them.

One of the places we love to go to for filling and delicious food is Tori Chizu. This is located at the second floor of TriNoma Mall. I am not sure if the store has other branches though.

Anyway, I have already brought 2 friends there and they love it.

My personal favorite is the Chicken Teriyaki which has gooey cheese on top of the chicken balls and rice.

Kick-Start Learning Experience with Licealiz

One of the most anticipated events in a child’s life is going back to school. Though it is time to say goodbye to summer fun, play dates and relaxed days, there is no need to say adios to clean and lice-free hair. It could be challenging but moms can maintain their children’s good hair hygiene even if they spend the whole day in school.

Here’s how:  Lamoiyan Corporation’s Licealiz Head Lice Treatment Shampoo. Licealiz is an affordable, non-toxic formula that is clinically-proven to kill lice and nits.

One of the reasons why some children have a hard time in school or has few friends who will play with them is because these children have head lice. It also makes the child conscious. With Licealiz, these children can be lice-free and would be able to use their full potential in learning in school as well as making the most of their time with their socialization with their friends.

Recently, moms and their daughters, through the Kick-starting the Learning Experience workshop were given a chance to bond while learning tips on how to keep their daughters’ hair well-maintained.

Lectures on basic hair care, ways to prevent hair lice infestation and preparation for the current school year to ensure the child’s health remain uncompromised by threats such as pediculosis or head lice were discussed.

Fashionable hairstyles were also taught through a hairstyle tutorial for easy-to-do and preppy look for the school were also done. My daughter’s hairstyle, which I braided and used colored rubber bands wrapped on hairpins and inserted in various areas of the hair to make it look colorful and unique. We were one of the winner, by the way, yey!

Robatayaki Izakaya Nobunaga

If you are in Manila and you are craving for Japanese food, head over to Robatayaki Izakaya Nobunaga sushi restaurant at 1644 A. Mabini Street, Malate, Manila.

The servings are big, hindi tinipid ang ingredients.

The ingredients are fresh. The taste is just right. My katsudon was crunchy and sa totoo lang, I had a hard time eating the whole order because the size is big.

The prices are reasonable. Expect to pay 800-1,000 for 2-3 people.

The place is big and there are enough tables to seat around approximately 40 people or even more. Photo taken around opening time.

The eating area is cool. You can see the food preparation in the open kitchen. There is parking for around 3-4 cars in front. You can also see a lot of Japanese eating in this restaurant.  The owner is usually in the restaurant overseeing the operations.

Opening hours: 11AM – 2AM

Bonchon Korean Fried Chicken

When Bonchon Philippines opened shops in the Philippines, we were not too ready for the food it offered. The chicken pieces were “too small” for the kids who are used to big sized fried chicken. Since then we have been to the stores only a handful of times. Mostly we go to the Trinoma branch because that is where we always go for supermarket days and daily parking. We love their Bibimbowl though.

One time that my youngest child and I were out, she said she wants to go to Bonchon for lunch and so we went there. She ordered the chicken wings and said we’d give it another try.

We loved the fried chicken wings. It was flavorful. Surpringly, despite the size, it was quite filling.

I still have to replicate this to be featured in my food blog though I am not sure if I will do it because we rarely have fried chicken at home.

Anyway…

Have you tried these Korean style fried chicken from Bonchon? What do you think?
