A POST EVENT PRESS RELEASE
A DAY FOR DISCOVERY
AND EXPLORATION AT BABY BLAST YEAR 4!
As
more and more diversions are created for children to engage in, how can we help
in making sure a child gets the best kind of learning at his or her most
crucial stages? Kids nowadays are spending less and less time
outdoors, having been exposed to gadgets and other forms of technology even as
infants. But recent studies show that children, especially those aged 3 and
below, who play outdoors regularly grow up happier, healthier, and stronger!
Since
2010, Baby Blast has spread awareness that enjoyable, unforced learning, as
well as hands-on play and parent-child bonding during the age of 0-3 years is
critical in laying down the foundation for the child’s future learning and
holistic development. Every year, attendance to the event grows in number, as
more families enjoy the fun activities and learn from the featured topics.
Outbox Media Production Agency, in cooperation with the Department
of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and Philippine Pediatric Society
(PPS), once again celebrated the wonder of life at its early stages! EHS
advocates, teachers, experts and parents together with their kids, gathered
last April 14, 2013, from 10am-8pm at the Trinoma Activity Center for “Baby Blast Year 4: Discover, Create, Imagine
and Explore!” a one-day event highlighting the importance of early
childhood education.
This
year’s event was hosted by Toni Aquino of DZMM, Jackie Go of gojackiego.com, pre-school teacher and
TV host, Nikki Veron Cruz, celebrity moms Snooky Serna and Jenny Miller,
sportscaster Anthony Suntay and journalist Peach Mascarinas, together with the
tandem of Anthony and Rossel Taberna. Performances and messages of support for
early education were also given by Gail Blanco, Paolo Santos, Patricia
Bermudez-Hizon and Tintin Bersola-Babao.
The
program was opened by a dance number from talented child singer Pauline
Agupitan, together with the Neutron Acrobats and OBM Dancers.

This
year’s program highlighted the importance of allowing babies and kids to
experience the outdoors and engage in physical activities that can benefit
their social, mental, physical and emotional development, given today’s
tendency to merely rely on gadgets and technology to keep kids busy.
