3 Things That Every Home Should Have

Image
It seems that after the fire that broke out in our province last year got to me so much that I became a little more anxious or worried about things more than usual. Crossing my fingers that I don't get a disorder, but the obsessive-compulsive in me says to always keep in check. And I usually do, most of the time, now, more often than before. The fire in Boac, smothered into flames three to four blocks of old houses and business establishments, and since the structures were so old, the flames spread out too quickly and engulfed numerous properties. Since then, I realized that many of the Filipino homes are not equipped with the proper tools and kits to be ready in case of an emergency.

Fire Extinguisher and Smoke Detectors Fire Extinguishers are generally required when getting business permits, but most homes do not have them. Condominiums should have in ...

First Aid Kits, a MUST HAVE

Image
First aid kits should always be well-stocked so you're always ready to face with minor accidents and injuries. It's also a great idea to have one in your car all the time. Many drugstores and supermarkets sell pre-packed kits but you can also make one of your own.  Use a sturdy box, preferably a small plastic container with a handle that can fit the items below. You can use this list if you plan to assemble one: First Aid Kit Contents Bear in mind that opened medicine syrup is must be put in the refrigerator. It is also best to store your kits in a cool dry place and must be kept out of reach of small children. For big emergencies, have this list of hotlines printed and put in your kit as well. It's also handy to have it posted somewhere where everyone has access to like by your phones or on the refrigerator. You can download this list in PDF from  www.gov.ph .

Why Margot Robbie is Trending

Margot Robbie will play as Barbie in a movie that she will also be co-producing. The Australian actress-producer who plays  Harley Quinn  in Suicide Squad and Jane in the movie The Legend of Tarzan closed the deal with Mattel and will be playing as the iconic character in the real-life action film.  The resemblance is uncanny and it's perfect casting for me!

Nowadays, many banking institutions offer so much more as they compete with one another to get more customers. While my hubby and I also look at which bank offer higher interest rates, the proximity and the queue, there are other things that you may also want to think about when availing banking services for your child. Minimum Investment  How much money you would like to put in is one of the first things you need to ask yourself. You may go for the minimum or you may take the minimum investment to earn interest.  Bank of Commerce for example, only takes Php200 to open a bank account, but you have to have Php10,000 to earn interest monthly. Banks may ask for zero to Php2,000 as initial deposit to open one. PSBank offers an account for kids and teens for zero invest...
