    It will be four months of quarantine next week, and if no one has told you yet, good job, moms and dads, on managing to get your family through this most trying and exhausting time!

    It has undoubtedly made you creative in coming up with solutions to keep your children entertained while fostering their development at the same time. At this point, you’re just trying to find the right balance between fun and learning. So we recommend adding this to your learning arsenal during “recess”: a virtual tour of The Catsup Museum

    The word catsup alone is enough to pique the kids’ interest, and the best part is the whole family gets to appreciate the well-loved and uniquely Filipino banana catsup. Founded in 2017 by NutriAsia in partnership with The Mind Museum, The Catsup Museum promotes the Filipino virtues of ingenuity, resourcefulness, and hard work, all of which go into each bottle of banana catsup.
