I was invited to witness the first ever Smart Parenting Convention last July 29, 2017, which was held at the Megatrade Hall of SM Megamall in Ortigas. It was a whole day affair filled with amazing parenting talks and workshops, as well as tons of wonderful booths to buy the best baby and kiddie stuff. The fun-filled day was sponsored by Belo Baby, Calpol, Insular Life and powered by PLDT Fibr. They all had their own booths and had giveaways for attendees.
The day was divided into 4 blocks: Pregnancy, Baby, Toddler, and Family. Each block has a guest expert speaker/facilitator. Upon registering, an attendee is asked to pick 2 blocks to attend and the workshops were set in the afternoon. For Pregnancy, the experts were Chiqui Brosas and Dr. Aurora Tajan. They spoke about preparing for pregnancy and tackled pregnancy myths. For the Baby block, Sharon Agoncillo-Galang along with Chiqui Brosas spoke about newborn skin care and baby sign language. For Preschoolers, Michelle Lichauco-Tambunting of Young Creative Minds Preschool covered discipline and raising kids in the digital age. For the Family block, Aya Alaraya taught the importance of savings and investment for the family's future.
While waiting for the workshops to begin, attendees were invited to browse among the many booths available at the hall. Guests were invited to vote for their favorite booth and here are my top picks!
They also had a play area and special places for breastfeeding and diaper changes. The play area was provided by The Learning Playground.
Thank you Summit Media for inviting me, I had a great time checking out all the stuff, meeting mommy friends and spending time with my son. For information about parenting the smart way and events like these, you can check out their website, Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for more details.
