Rescue Run: Community Run for Typhoon Sendong Victims
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 24th, 2011
An entire town was nearly wiped out after a strong typhoon hit them just days ago. While I was comfortably hanging around with friends and “Facebooking”, THOUSANDS of people were fighting for their lives. I was shocked to come home and read all about it in the news… worse to even see videos of the people who lost their families, loved ones and home during the tragedy. Typhoon Sendong left at least 3,000 dead and thousands others homeless in...Read More » Tags

Puzzled Christmas Wreath
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 18th, 2011
It’s always fun to come up with a variety of objects to glue unto our Christmas wreaths! Last year, we tried gluing mittens and bottle caps, this year, we tried using old puzzle pieces to make colorful wreaths! So I’m sure most of you have tried letting your kids put together a puzzle or two and after completing it, the puzzle pieces start getting lost one by one. So now you’re left with a box filled with incomplete puzzle pieces, what d...Read More » Tags

2 in 1: Christmas Lantern and Christmas Card
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 12th, 2011
We originally wanted to make a Christmas lantern that we could hang inside the classroom (and the kids could hang in their homes later on). However, while doing the activity, we realized we could make it more meaningful by turning this lantern into a Christmas card….and so we did just that! What you will need: Colored tissue paper/ Crepe paper/ Japanese Paper Colored cellophane Construction Paper Cutter Ca...Read More » Tags

Soleus Sports Watch: “Giving Runners Everything We Need and Nothing We Don’t!”
by Cheryl Villareal on Dec 5th, 2011
First and foremost, what does Soleus mean? I've heard the term, and I've even seen their team in several fun runs throughout the year, but I've never really thought about the meaning of the word. To me, Soleus was simply a sports watch. Well, for those of you who didn't know, the word soleus is actually a muscle in our body. It is a powerful muscle in the back part of the lower leg (or calf) and runs just below the knee all the way ...Read More » Tags

Eric Carle Collage in Brown Bear Brown Bear
by Cheryl Villareal on Nov 27th, 2011
The kids have always loved BROWN BEAR, they love learning the different colors while also seeing the pictures of different animals! Moreover, they enjoy singing the song while looking at the pictures. This time, we wanted to try and make collages. So we had them pick which color they wanted and we mixed 2 other complimenting colors with it. So if they picked green, we’d give them GREEN, YELLOW and WHITE. If they picked PU...Read More » Tags

Jewelmer Opening in Resorts World Philippines
by Cheryl Villareal on Nov 17th, 2011
They say jewelry is the way to a woman's heart. I never agreed with that until I saw JEWELMER. Jewelmer is a French Filipino company specializing in South Sea pearls. But what does that have to do with teaching or running? Well honestly... NOTHING. It just so happened that I went to the opening of a jewelry shop in resorts world 2 weeks ago, and though I'm not a girly-girl type of person, my jaw dropped after seeing all these beautif...Read More » Tags

Jamba Juice Now Blending in the Philippines!
by Cheryl Villareal on Nov 12th, 2011
When I first heard that Jamba Juice was coming to town, I had NO IDEA what it was. I figured it was just like any other juice and smoothie shop... no biggie. Well so I thought. A few days ago, I was given the wonderful opportunity to attend the Jamba Juice VIP and Media Night at the Fort. I came to the event not expecting anything at all, in fact, I thought it would just be a small event to show the media and bloggers the...Read More » Tags

Modern Day “Starry Night” Inspired by Van Gogh
by Cheryl Villareal on Nov 3rd, 2011
For art month, we’re learning all about the famous artists and their unique painting styles. They will serve as inspirations for our art activities. Now when I say inspiration, it means that we WON’T copy exactly what the artist did but probably learn something from it. Yesterday, I posted about our Sistine Table painting which was inspired by Michelangelo. You can check that out HERE. Well today, it’s Van Gogh’s turn to shin...Read More » Tags

The “Sistine Table”- Painting Like Michelangelo
by Cheryl Villareal on Nov 2nd, 2011
Who says preschoolers are too young to learn about fine arts? It’s always better to start young right? For the entire month, we have decided to teach our little kiddos about the famous artists and their unique artistic styles! To start off, we introduced them to the famous Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti or simply Michelangelo! First, we showed the kids his famous painting on the Sistine chapel.

Monster Feet for Halloween!
by Cheryl Villareal on Oct 28th, 2011
Halloween is coming up and a lot of people around the world are ready to celebrate Halloween. However, we don't celebrate it as much here in the Philippines. Still, who says we can't get it a little with the Halloween cheer right? I personally love the occasion but I don't want to go against the culture of our school as well. So, here's what we ended up with! - What you will need: Two identical tissue boxes Colored paper/cartolina C...Read More » Tags
