Claret Welcomes the Smart Parenting School Tour

Picture this: thoughtfully curated loot bags filled with playful and festive finds from Flying Tiger Copenhagen, paired with exclusive Smart Parenting merchandise. Add a warm cup of coffee and the simple joy of gathering with fellow families to share stories, insights, and moments that help us elevate the art of parenting.

That’s exactly how we launched the Smart Parenting School Tour at Claret School of Quezon City! For those who were unable to attend, here’s a glimpse of what unfolded the weekend following Valentine’s Day, on February 21.

From the moment the doors opened, curiosity filled the space. Parents and students alike were drawn in, naturally engaging with an environment designed not only to inform, but also to connect. Conversations flowed easily, allowing the team to meaningfully engage with attendees who were genuinely eager to learn and participate.

There's a quiet power in events that unfold with both precision and purpose, and this was certainly one of them. The booth was prepared and completed right on schedule, ready to welcome guests with ease and set the tone for a seamless and inviting experience from the very beginning.

Signing up was simple. Families scanned a QR code and connected with fellow parents through the Smart Parenting Village (SPV), a community built around stories, practical tips, and meaningful support. Parents lined up to register and pose for selfies, while children happily received their thoughtfully prepared loot bags.

The Smart Parenting Café kiosk served a steady stream of freshly brewed beverages for new Smart Parenting Village members, offering favorites such as Americano, café latte, Spanish latte, caramel latte, vanilla latte, and of course, matcha for non-coffee drinkers.

Perfectly complementing the overall atmosphere was the strong presence of Smart Parenting Editor-in-Chief, Ronna Capili-Bonifacio, whose engagement helped bring both parents and students together inside the auditorium. Her presence fostered a shared parenting experience that resonated across generations, all centered on improving our parenting journey together.

And as a cherry on top, the Smart Parenting Team also held a grand raffle for attendees.

The Smart Parenting School Tour’s meaningful stop at Claret brought families together for a day that blended learning and experience. Thoughtfully designed to engage both parents and students, the event created a space where conversations about modern parenting could unfold naturally over smiles and warm cups of coffee.

It was a gathering shaped by intention, where thoughtful planning, genuine engagement, and shared moments came together to create something quietly memorable. To the parents and students of Claret School of Quezon City, our partners, and most especially the Smart Parenting family, thank you for helping make our very first Smart Parenting School Tour such a meaningful success.

And this is only the beginning.

The tour continues in the coming months as we visit more campuses and connect with more Filipino families. Stay tuned, your school may be our next destination. We are currently seeking new school partners to join us in our mission of supporting Filipino families.
