#CILA Educational Fieldtrip. This is a learning adventure.
Its our first Educational Fieldtrip to attend as a Family (Daddy, Mommy & Roczi – Our Junior Kinder.) my Husband took a leave to keep a promise with our little girl,
Keeping a promise?.. its not always have to meant to be broken..
A Day with your Kid is something that not even work can replace.
This is the moment that our Kid/s will cherish while growing up.. to have a supportive parents.. is important!
but What really to expect in a Fieldtrip?.. actually, i don’t know.. we will see when we get there…
First Things First, Know what to bring: (its very important)
- Extra Shirt, Handkerchief, Small Towel, Snacks, Water, Toiletries & of course POCKET MONEY – Oooops lets not forget our Phone and camera’s too!
This was September 27, 2017 FEE , that time it only Cost: Php1,000+ (Transporation fees, Entrances Fees at different itineraries)
A bit excited, wake up at 5:00 am to prepare:
ITINERARY as Follows:
6:30-7:00 am Assembly at school
7:00 – 7:30am Leave from school
1st stop – GOLDILOCKS (SM Mall of Asia) for Cake Decorating, this is one thing kids got excited too, decorate some cakes & show how creative they are.
2nd Stop – A Visit to the MMDA Children’s Road Safety Park, Its a Five-year old park situated right across Manila Zoo. It was actually the Children’s Playground before the City of Manila entrusted it to the MMDA. It is open for free everyday, except Wednesdays.
Children should be taught as early as possible to learn safety rules.
a staff from MMDA conduct an orientation for our kids. It’s very informative. She even used the popular children’s song Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star to get the kids to move and tell her what the traffic lights mean. It get a bit like having a nursery rhyme song at school. (Nice job madam!) Even us Parents, enjoy listening to her. After Orientation she led the tour of the park.
Its my first time to go here too, and i like how they made the park. There were road signs all around and even made replicas of a church, hospital, a gas station, foot bridge, train track, and a pedestrian tunnel to help simulate real ones to the kids who will visit it. They’ve enjoy the echoes thing in there!
3rd Stop – IMAX 3D Theather (SM Mall of Asia) “DEEP SEA”
A 3-D digital exploration of the ocean’s depths and its creatures.Kids will see how life underwater is.. but since its a 3-D, our 4year old didn’t enjoy it. She has to take off the glasses & didnt watch it full. My daughter at her age for me is not kind of want too loud sound and she doesn’t want the 3D effect that makes her scared.
Me & my husband just watched it while our little girl just took a nap for the entire film.
Its a good idea that they have this film for those kids who really loves underwater or already get or used to in a movie theater. Maybe My Roczi will be.. nexttime..
LUNCH! LUNCH! LUNCH! @ 12:00nn- 1:00PM
We head around SM to look for Jollibee – our kiddo’s favorite to eat
(Chicken & fries, what else?!!!) Bon Appetit!
4th Stop – RIZAL PARK, also known as Luneta Park, is a historic urban park located in the heart of Manila, the capital city of the Philippines. It’s one of the most significant landmarks in the country that shouldn’t be missed by every local or foreign tourist who are travelling to Metro Manila. So its always part of an educational fieldtrip in any levels. Visit the actual site where Dr. Jose Rizal was executed and hear a short story about it.
5th Stop – UPSIDE DOWN MUSEUM in Pasay, inspiration was taken from Malaysia /Thailand /Taiwan and USA. People flock to these museums to see something familiar yet different – turning houses upside down. This Philippine edition – decided to do it ten- fold bigger and added more illusions to expand the experience.
All these in a 1,700 sq. feet of fun and excitement. All for P450.00 per person.
To date Upside Down features 15 more features and counting. We have the Leaning House, Floating Corner, Upside Down House, Mirror House, Giant Sneaker – Giant Headset, The World of Comfort , The Inverted Steel Bridge. Etc.
We didn’t get to take all photos of it because our 4y/o is already tired and ask us to go back in the bus. But ALL in ALL.. we enjoy this day. This is not only just an EDUCATIONAL Fieldtrip for us.. Its also an opportunity to bond as a family.
It means like no matter how busy work can get.. make/find time (if possible) for your kids.. participate in this kind of activities with them. It’s worth it! It’s those memories WE can always look back to while their young.
More Photos below…
Look how these faces with those BIG SMILES? Field trip like these, counts.
Lately, it has caught our attention about the school bus incident in other country. Really sad and heartbreaking especially for the families.
But we should not be afraid. I always believe that things happened for a reason.
Let’s always pray for every journey we took.
We look forward for another field trip with my kids…very soon.
PS. Yes, If we permit to accompany them, It’s always fun to be with our kids with this kind of activities.
