MAKE MOMENTS MEMORABLE WITH MEKENI PICNIC HOTDOG

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a life-changing experience for all of us. In a snap, lifestyles changed and work-from-home setup, as well as distance learning, have become the new norm. If you think that juggling parenting and working has been harder these days, you are not alone.

As a parent, you are expected to attend to your kids’ needs 24/7. While you try to balance everything despite your hectic schedule, making more time for your kids should always be on top of your daily list. But, how to?

Moms' love will never change, just like Mekeni Picnic Hotdog

If there is anything that the pandemic is teaching us, it is that the unwavering love of moms will never change even if the new normal is here. Mekeni Picnic Hotdog has put together some of the #MomApproved activities to help you bond with your kids whether it’s to play, teach, or entertain them in this time of a pandemic. 


Engage your kids in household chores like cooking

For influencers Rowena Wendy Lei (@animetric) and Janice Lim (@mommyplannerista), engaging kids in doing household chores like cooking will not only keep them busy at home. This will also create lasting memories that they can take as they grow older. 

“I figure that even if juggling life as a work-at-home mom is hard especially in the new normal, I can still show them how much I love them by spending quality time with them. Cooking together is a great activity that not only teaches them a useful skill but also allows us to have some bonding time,” Mommy Janice said.

Do some light exercises with them

Take some time off work and do some light exercises at home with your kids. According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, kids should be getting at least an hour of physical activities every day, in addition to an hour of bone-strengthening and muscle-strengthening exercises three times a week. Make this exercise at home activity with your kids even more fun by changing the routine from time to time.

Stimulate their minds with board games

For mommy influencer Peachy (@thepeachkitchen), moms can also stimulate their kids’ minds through various activities like playing board games! She even said, “Kahit gaano tayo ka-busy, dapat may bonding moments pa rin. Bukod sa panonood ng movies, hilig namin ni Ykaie at Twinkle maglaro ng board games at storytime.”

Set a family movie night

Since everyone is most likely at home while in quarantine, you can set a movie night with the whole bunch! Take turns in choosing the movie of the week and then snuggle up to watch it on a weekend night. And, don’t forget the snacks! Surely, your kids will love every minute of it.

Learn a new skill or pick up a new hobby

Isolation can be downright boring. This is why even while at home, kids need to develop hobbies or learn new skills to keep them busy. May it be singing, dancing, playing instruments, or creative writing, there are a lot of online classes you can take with them that will hone their skills and pique their interest.
