Just in case you needed a reminder, it’s payday weekend! Make the most out of it by treating the whole fam to fun-filled activities and a little shopping on the side (there are a lot of end-of-season sales, after all!). Here’s everything you can do this weekend:
Where to go
Create and Build Minecraft Edition
If your kids are into science, start the weekend with a fun, educational activity at Shangrila at the Fort Adventure Zone. Their one-hour Create & Build session will provide a hands-on learning experience using different Lego toys to boost problem-solving, organization, and social and emotional skills. Kids get to explore the concepts of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math and will get to exercise their imagination and creativity as they learn how different things work. Create & Build happens every Friday of February and is open to Adventure Zone members ages 4 to 12 years old. Walk-ins are allowed for a fee of P1,200 that comes with an additional 4 hours of play in the Adventure Zone. Visit their Facebook event page for more info.
