Wonderful Moms at the Century City Mall

Makati, Philippines -   Every year, we celebrate the love shared between a mother and her child. There is no love stronger than that of a mother’s for her child. A bond that is almost impossible to break. Despite all of the hardships moms go through, their love never fades.

 

This year, Century City Mall celebrated Mother’s Day activities last Sunday, May 7, 2017, it was a day of special mother-child bonding and workshops by The Parent Emporium that surely made our Mother’s Day unforgettable. Teachers of Expression Music serenaded guests with “Popular Mother Songs” and Ms. Rachelle Verns dedicated the ever-favorite Frozen song to all the Kid audience.

 

 

One of the activities was a fun blindfold game, wherein the children were blindfolded and he/she had to identify their mothers by touching and feeling their face, hair, and hands as they stood in a line alongside other fellow mothers! This activity was done in collaboration with the James MacKay Foundation Inc. and the Philippine National School For The Blind, whom sent in students and their mothers to take place in the activities. Serving as a reminder, yet again, that despite obstacles, a mother’s love is unbreakable.
