Providing wonderful bonding experiences for parents and children through cultural, educational, and social extravaganza, the country’s largest educational kids’ fair gears up for another year of fun-filled family activities.
SmartKids Asia Philippines (SmartKids), already in its fifth year, continues to offer Filipino families learning opportunities for their children through education, healthcare, and bonding activities.
The event will be from January 26 to 27, 2019, 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, at Halls 1 and 2 of the SMX Convention Center, SM Mall of Asia Complex, Pasay City.
SmartKids has achieved immense success in Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia, gaining its title as one of the largest educational kids’ fair in Asia. Making another fun-filled event in the Philippines, the edutainment extravaganza continues to provide unparalleled opportunities to explore the potential of children through must-see demonstrations, family-centric exhibits, and product booths.
A new adventure for the whole family
Parade to the beat of the drums as SmartKids opens its doors with a ribbon-cutting ceremony featuring a dynamic circus act. A welcoming committee of mascots will wait to greet guests and add luster to the event. The first 100 kids to enter the event will be given exclusive freebies.
Anyone can show off their crafty side as Archery 1O1, a co-presenter of the event, will have prizes in store for its Best Archer Costume Contest. Kids 12 years old and below can join the contest and register before the event. Visit bit.ly/skaparchery for the full mechanics of the event.
Archery 1O1, a premium indoor archery range, offers different activities through archery lessons, school physical education integration, bow customization, private events, team building, and corporate events.
After the opening ceremony, the fun and games instantly start as Diwa Learning Systems (Diwa) hosts its Pasiklaban sa Paaralan National Finals, the first and only ICT-integrated traveling quiz show in the country.
Brand partner Tempra will take the stage in the afternoon along with the Kramer family for games and fun activities for the family.
Smart activities
During the two-day event, families will receive Quest Guides upon registration, which entitles them to receive a special loot bag once they present a completed Stamp Page. SmartKids also features free family-oriented classes and workshops given by exhibitors where participants can learn about various tips in cooking, health, and education.
