Summer Toys

It is summer vacation where we are and there is so much to do!

For the children who are vacationing with my MIL and my parents, they brought a lot of stuff with them you’d think they won’t be coming back. They got toys and books and our smartphones with them.

Summer is that season where children can learn new skills. My children like to play with new stuff, like this Duncan raptor yoyo which we saw one time we were browsing the web for new toy ideas. Here was the video we saw:

They still occasionally play with their toys like the Beyblade. Still their favorite are the cars which at times get “lost” under my pillows.

Trip to the Hardware Store

I am currently having the little room where I teach renovated. I have to do this because during last year’s heavy rains, the ceilings leaked. And my books got all wet. And I can’t use these anymore. Not that these are new ones, these are mostly used textbooks but I use these for reference so it saddens me so that this had to happen.

I don’t know a thing about having a little construction done though I love going to hardware stores. I’d easily get lost in a hardware store because there are so many things to see and touch and think about: shower heads, pots for plants, Venetian blinds, address plaques for houses, cabinet handles and even those colorful paints.

There is just so many things to see and buy there. The most fun? In this particular hardware store where we buy dog food, there is a Japanese store inside where we buy things for only Php85. Happiness!
