SM Supermarket Kids' City 2018

Friday, September 14, 2018

     If there's one activity that we love doing, that is no other than walking the aisle of a supermarket. It's a weekly family bonding that we look forward to every weekend. My son is always excited to accompany us in buying our food and other grocery items at SM Supermarket and Save More Market.

     There are two SM Malls near our place and it's just a stone throw away from where we live. We buy our everyday essentials at SM Supermarket most of the time because of complete assortments and well-organized aisle. There's another thing that we love about SM Markets- the annual SM Supermarket Kids' City celebration. Know more about the biggest kiddie party in the Metro below :)

SM Supermarket Kids' City 2017

Monday, October 02, 2017

     Grocery shopping is one of our weekly family bonding activity. I'm happy that my son is always excited to accompany us in buying our food and other grocery items. We like to buy our everyday essentials in spacious and complete stores like SM Supermarket and Save More Market. The location is very convenient for us since it's just a stone throw away from where we live.

     Last Saturday, Nuffnang Philippines invited us to witness the last leg of SM Supermarket's Kids' City 2017 at SM Megamall Event Center, Lower Ground Bldg. A Food court. It's the grandest kiddie party ever because of the activities that were prepared not only for the kids but for the whole family as well. Sharing the highlights of SM Supermarket Kids' City 2017 below :)

Nickelodeon’s Takotown: Fright Express

Thursday, November 10, 2016

     Last October 31, Kenzo joined Nickelodeon's Halloween party at SM Megamall Megatrade Hall. Highlight of the event was the so called ride of our lives aboard the Takotown: Fright Express — a one-of-a-kind Halloween experience where over 4,000 fans were treated to an afternoon packed with frightfully-fun tricks and treats, surprises and activities.

     The perfect trick or treat activity for kids (and the young at heart), Nickelodeon’s Takotown: Fright Express turned a usually scary Halloween extravaganza into an epic celebration, the Nickelodeon way. And with the Spook Station’s unique and thematic areas, the haunted main attraction offered an unforgettable experience to families. Highlights of the event below :)

Fun Theme Party Ideas for Your Summer Shindigs

Thursday, August 11, 2016

     Ahhh, summer … the season of endless days, pool and beach time, and cocktails with umbrellas in them. Is there anything better? We think not. And, while going out can be a blast, summer is a great time to throw a party in your own backyard. Think twinkle lights, a firepit, and s’mores. Oh, yeah! The only thing that’s better than a summer party is a themed summer party. Not that creative? We’ve got your back. Read this for fun theme party ideas for your summer shindigs. 
Fun Theme Party Ideas for Your Summer Shindigs 
Throw a Lovely Luau

     You don’t have to be Hawaiian to enjoy a good luau, and dressing for them is so easy and fun. A Tipsy Elves Hawaiian shirt is the order of the day, but don’t forget your lei. Of course, the plastic ones will do just fine in a pinch, or you could go above and beyond and make your own lei. Hawaiian clothing is nothing if not colorful, so ladies should plan on making a statement with their nails.

     As for food, just about anything goes. Don’t be painted into a corner by thinking you have to roast a pig on a spit. Besides, some people might not be too fond of seeing their favorite animal being roasted over the fire! A great option for appetizers could be teriyaki meatballs atop a slice of pineapple. Sweet and savory, they’ll satisfy the pickiest of palates. Pulled pork is another tried and true fave with a Hawaiian flair. Channel your inner-Martha Stewart and serve some cinnamon sugar cookies or set up a snow cone bar with your own snow cone maker.

Go Minute to Win It

     Remember the old game show? It may not be on anymore but plenty of people use it for inspiration for raucous parties. Your competitive friends will love quick but fun physical games that can be performed in your kitchen or your own backyard. From Suck It Up (kids love anything that involves M&Ms) and Mad Dog to Card Ninja and Sticky Situation, Minute to Win It gets everyone in on the shenanigans. Of course, there’s no themed attire for this kind of party, but you do probably want to wear something that allows you to move easily. Still want to look cute? Girls, we totally get that. Try a sassy jumpsuit! 

Water Whimsy

     A pool party is just good, clean fun so, if you’re one of the lucky ones who own a pool, throw a shindig to remember. Go light on food (bites and apps are perfect for busy swimmers) and as cheeky as you want on cocktails (think drinks served in coconuts!). Of course, safety is always first, so make sure you don’t invite too many guests that it gets chaotic, watch the alcoholic drinking, and make sure to have a First Aid kit on hand.

     No pool? No problem! Raid the water aisle at Target and pick up a bunch of super soakers and water balloons and let the kids go crazy. Rewind the clock to the 1970s and put up the sprinkler! Throw out a Wham-O slip ‘n’ slide and load it up with bubbles. You can even blow up a kiddie pool for the wee ones. Blow your kids’ minds with this super fun water balloon piñata. The ideas for whimsical water fun are really endless, and the perfect way to beat the scorching summer heat. 

Incite Movie Mania

     If you have a projector, you can do this on your own. If not, there are plenty of companies that will bring their inflatable movie screens to your backyard for the event. They’ll often even bring a popcorn maker to create the authentic movie feel we all love. Have kids bring their sleeping bags and/or chairs. Or make it an adult-only event, complete with blankets, picnic baskets, a good comedy or Rom/Com, and everyone’s favorite bottle of wine. Either way, you can’t go wrong with a movie under the stars. 

     Take your party from ordinary to extraordinary by following these summer theme party ideas.
