A day at Philippine Science Centrum

As a working Mom, quality time outside our house is an effort - bringing the Yaya and all the stuff. But I would like my son to learn, to interact with other children and other things outside his comfort zone (our home). That is why as much as possible or as early as now I want to expose him to the world and one of those places where he will definitely learn are Science Museums.

He's a queer little boy and that's a good sign. I admit, I am not a sound teacher. I don't have that kind of patience. As an alternative, I vowed to provide my kid the stuff that will help him learn such as books, nursery rhymes in CDs, piano music as one of his sleeping routine. I sometimes talk to him in English, but most of the time in Tagalog. I want him to grow up as normal as other children do.

When Lani posted the invite on our online community, I immediately signed up. Saturday on that week we went to PSC. It was a day of fun and learning experience for Ayvan and me.

Philippine Science Centrum is located at E-com building inside the Riverbanks Center in Marikina -  next to ours (Antipolo City) so, going there was easy and thanks to Karen for guiding us.

They feature several "mind-challenging" and interactive exhibits. One of their staff gave us a tour and showcased what the machines are all about.

Ayvan's favorites? Look at the photos.


This is the Colored Shadow exhibit. They will ask you to stand in the center of the white wall and you will see your shadow in different color.

He was looking at it like a candy because of the colors.




He found a new buddy.

This is one of their Body Works Exhibit. The Pick a Cone
His favorite. He couldn't take his hands off it.

The Echo Tube
He got confused. I shouted once but he heard his name many times.

 Inside the Kids World there's a mini Market place, Slide, Reading Corner, Blocks and Lego.

His first time to slide down. Woot Woot! Look at his face. He was nervous. Haha


He loves Lego as you can see. He almost doesn't want to go down.

The ever famous Van De Graaff exhibit. 

When you touch the sphere, watch your hair stands. Its because of the positive charge.


Sympathetic Swing

The Pipes of Pan exhibit.
The sound depends on how long or short the pipe is.

I noticed that Ayvan seems fascinated in Bodywork exhibits. He likes to touch and feel things. I think it is a good sign and with that, this will never be the first time to visit such place as this.

Philippine Science Centrum is definitely a place where your kids learn while having fun like my little one. Visit the place now and you will never regret when you see you kids' reactions.
