Laging Handa!
The famous Boy Scout of the Philippines Quote

Myth and Belief

Some people think that homeschooling kid is just spending their lives in the comfort of their home. But we must change that thinking because homeschooling kids have more time to choose what is the best for their interest, what makes them happy and productive, let them choose what really matter and adjust their priorities but not letting the academic and family time be compromised.

Camping and Investiture

Last weekend we, homeschooling family, gathered and have our first ever camp and investiture event at navadwip farm. With all the efforts of AKDA we are able to reach out to the Boy Scout and Girl Scout of the Philippines that we homeschooling Family exist and we are very much interested to join their organization.

What is Scouting?

But what is Boy Scout and Girl Scout of the Philippines? They are a separate NGO.

“The Boy Scout of the Philippines provides a non-formal education committed to develop morally straight, disciplined, concerned, self-reliant citizens in the best tradition of world scouting. It aims to inculcate among the scouts, the love of God, country and fellowmen.”

” The Girl Scouts of the Philippines (GSP) is the national Girl Scouting association for girls and young women in thePhilippines. Its mission is “to help girls and young women realize the ideals of womanhood and prepare themselves for their responsibilities in the home, to the nation, and to the world community”. “

What Activities we have during the Camp?

Experience

We have so so fun, why? Because Jaasu, 5 yrs old, was so tired during the event. He is currently in the KID Scout level (Kabataang Iminumulat Diwa). The camping and the almost whole day event drained his energy and the schedule that just let them sleep for 8 hours (with at his age is not enough) let him get sleepy at the event hehe. But I know this event will be getting better and better as we move forward. We are looking forward for scouting activities and collecting badges by doing good deeds.

Specially thanks to AKDA (visit them if you are interested on joining the Boy or Girl Scout of the Phillipines) and GOPALA Learning Haven for the venue.

As a kid from 90’s where the time tv anime series hit our television, I’ve been fascinated by the anime characters with the way they prepare their picnic food and school lunch box such a beautiful arrangement and looks yummy.

Those times where online marketing is not yet within our hands, actually I did not know what it calls that time. But now what things you cannot find online even love (nyahahaha just kidding)

The urge to know how to prepare this kind of meal became strong when we have our 1st student (weeeeeee), I can only afford is the tusok tusok way (food picks), which our student loves so much that he is able to eat everything.

Okay after that introduction what is Bento anyway, Do you believe Bento as per cotoacademy is merely a quickly prepared meal for busy people. The word bento (弁当), imported from Chinese, means the “useful thing”, “convenient” and has a double meaning, standing for both the container and the content. Hmmm… I’m thinking how is that happen? I think in our modern time preparing bento requires a lot of effort. Well….

How I was able to make my first bento meal? One day while browsing the Facebook, I’ve seen this post about bento workshop and I’m so lucky that it just near our home. Yeh! This is really for me. I invited my sister and we registered for the workshop.

This is it I’m so excited our bento workshop day.

Everything seems overwhelming but our instructor, Jen of Imbentonijen, is very nice and encourages us to personalize our bento meal. Our workshop is really from scratch, molding rice, cutting veggies, cheese, nuggets, bread and a lot more.

At the end of the workshop, we have both a rice meal and bread meal bento.

Kawai!

Right now I’m still looking for bento supplies and tools to make another one, and of course time, haha, WAHM has a lot of loads.

Thank you, Ms. Jen, and to my sister.
