The happiest hen produces the healthiest egg. She can even lay a golden yolk which is packed with added benefits compared to a regular one. This type of chicken can roam freely around a safe environment and is given the best care and comfort. Such hen also receives complete vaccination against diseases and is even subject to a medication program designed to boost her immune system.

These are the kinds of hen that Bounty Fresh has in their facilities. As the country’s top egg producer, Bounty Fresh ensures that they only deliver high-quality eggs and nothing more.

MOMI LEARNS| All about Teenage Acne

October 17, 2017 · Leave a Comment

It’s grocery time and my boys excitedly and hurriedly get their own facial scrub before I could even make my complete round at the first lane of the supermarket. Two of them are in their teens already and sadly, they are experiencing some acne problems.

I guess puberty, hormonal change, and personal hygiene seem to go hand in hand. It is not only the increased hormones due to puberty that cause teenager’s skin to breakout. As acne is caused when the pores of the skin are clogged with excess oil, bacteria then breed on these oily grounds.

I’ve experienced acne in my teenage years as well and it somehow affected my confidence. I do not want the same thing to happen to my boys so I gathered them and had a short discussion about acne.

MOMI JOINS HANDS| It All Starts With Washing the Hands

The numbers are alarming. And yes it seems most just don’t care.

The spread of germs

1.5 million children around the world die every year because of diarrhea. It is also considered as the second most common cause of death among kids. The first on the list is pneumonia, claiming 1.8 million lives globally each year.

If only the simple habit of handwashing with an anti-bacterial soap is properly practiced, such incident may have been reduced. Because one of the fastest ways to spread germs and diseases is by human contact and ingestion of contaminated food. The numbers presented only show that we haven’t nurtured the habit of proper hand washing.

After a series of school commitments, our Big Bunso went home one day with a cough. The following day, I heard Firstborn wheezing as well. With a newborn and a toddler to look after, I just couldn’t leave the house and buy medicine. How I wish I could count on my husband to drop by the drugstore and get some bottles of Carbocisteine. Unfortunately, he couldn’t even leave the bed. He felt ill as well.

For sure you have experienced this, too, and felt you have no one to turn to. But –

MOMI REVIEWS | Tupperware Go Flex + Giveaway

October 13, 2017 · 28 Comments

I share the small house with six boys. Often, I hear people say I am the only rose among the thorns. And the usual question I get from people – how was it to be among the boys?

To be honest, my number one concern is to have someone help me with the housework.

Maintaining a small house with six boys can sometimes be so insane. As I see it, even if today’s modern women work for a living, they still come home to a second shift. They clean the house, do the laundry, and cook food. It seems that culture dictates housework falls on a woman’s shoulder.

October 12, 2017 · 4 Comments

When someone talks about the advantages of responsive parenting, we often consider it from the perspective of cognitive development. As a mother, being more sensitive to our kids’ emotions is apparently our most significant achievement.

During babyhood, we hold our baby up whenever he cries. It is a natural reaction. We try to fulfill his demands and give most of our time keeping our infant close to us. But, have you ever thought that your proximity and closeness help develop the emotional bonding between you and the child? Yes, it does improve and strengthen the emotional bonding.

However, the more difficult phase of parenting begins when our kid grows up and starts showing those upsetting toddler behaviors. The best way to deal with this stage is to demonstrate how sensitive we could be.

We are what we wear. This is what I often hear from my mom who greatly influenced my love for dressing up. Our clothes- from fab gown to plain shirt – have a significant effect on our confidence and at the same time affect people’s impressions of us.
