Review: Kiddie Party at The Creamery


Since I've been through the stressful but fun and exciting planning of my son’s 1st birthday party, I would love to share with you how fun it went through. I’ve been looking for a party place all over the internet, I didn’t want to have so much difficulty so I wanted a party place that can cater the food and will take care of the program as well. Of course, there are Jollibee, McDonalds and other restaurants who can do that but I wanted my son’s 1st birthday to be unique.
I’ve found this place in the internet with some good reviews, The Creamery Resto and Ice Cream Bar. It’s inside the Selecta Kids Universe at SM Mall of Asia. Since it’s inside the Selecta Kids Universe with the Cosmic Kids Play Area, the ambiance itself is really for kids. Hubby and I knew that kids will enjoy it. The Creamery area is not that big for a party place but since we only invited about 50-70 people including kids, we didn’t have a problem. The food is reasonable, not that expensive but tastes good. 

What I love most of the party was the host and their staff, the girl host has a good diction and speaks in English very well, she was very energetic during the program, good enough to caught the attention of the kids and adult guests as well. The games were educational and the staff in costume had a dance number. They are in animals costume since we selected The Farm Theme for the party. My favorite part, I guess the guests favorite part too, was when the host and the staff led a dance number for all, they taught the steps first then afterwards the guests followed. We just realized that the party area was jump-packed of kids and adult guests dancing to their feet. It was really fun! 

I would really recommend this place for your kid’s party, though the area is quite small and limited. For those who prefer a small number of guests, this is the place to be. For sure your kids will enjoy and it will be a memorable birthday party for your kid!

Here are some of the photos:

Looking Back: Our First Baby Boy, Patrick Iñigo!

Time really fly so fast... I remember when I was still pregnant with my first child, how he made my tummy go crazy when he was hungry, we were hungry. How hard he kicked me during bedtime, as if he knew that my milk was just beside my bed. How hubby and I strolled Glorietta and Shangri-La Mall the whole day, with my contractions and all the odd pain just for him to finally came out. How I cried and shouted out at the labor room. And how fascinated, emotional and happy we were when we saw him for the very first time. Aaww, those were the days and yet I can still picture them in my mind vividly...

Blogging 101

Image courtesy of www.blog.hubspot.com

Recently, I became a fan of reading blogs. Blogs about Fashion, Beauty, Events, Home & Living, Parenting, Lifestyle and even personal blogs. I am not really into writing but reading these blogs somehow inspired me to make my own blog. So I took time to read some blogging 101 lessons online. Thanks to this site, I was able to get some tips on how to begin blogging, Problogger.

Here are some of the questions they've given:

1. Do you enjoy writing? Not really, but I am very willing to try.
2. What's your message? I just want share my journey of being a mom, a wife and career-woman, all at the same time.
3. Are you better at writing or speaking? I think I am better in speaking than writing, but like I said, I will try.
4. Do you enjoy reading?  I thought I don't, but recently just discovered that I do enjoy reading because I was able to finished a Three-logy book.
5. Do you have time? I believe I still do, I'm a superwoman.


So, I guess this is the start. I hope I'll enjoy blogging and you'll enjoy my upcoming blogs too. :)
