5 things I learned after jumping at Jumpyard

When I celebrated by birthday at Jump Yard last April, I learned these 5 things that people who would like to try the trampoline park must know.

Jump Yard is an indoor trampoline park located at Frontera Verde Complex, Ortigas Avenue Corner C5, Pasic City. 

1. I would advise not to bring kids under 6 years old.

Why? You are required to watch them all the time. If you have a nanny to look after them, sure why not. However, I still don't think you'll get the value of what you're paying since children under 6 only have a designated area to play. They can't go to the other parts of the park.

2. You need to buy grip socks

You can insist on wearing your own socks but using grip socks would give a better experience. Jump Yard sells grip socks. You can reuse it for your next jump or even use it as an ordinary socks.

3. You need to do a LOT OF STRETCHING and should know your limits

Jumping on trampolines is a form of exercise. And just like in doing any exercise, stretching is a must. Something that my Boy and I didn't do. So let's just say that I am still suffering from occasional knee pain whenever I squat.

4. Bring extra clothes

You will surely sweat buckets after trying all the activities such as the slam dunk area, dodgeball, wall climbing, monkey bars, and a lot more. It is best to bring an extra shirt so you can change afterwards.

5. Follow the RULES

They require the jumpers to watch a video regarding the safety rules. Follow it and you are sure to have a great time.

Tatlong Kwento ni Lola Basyang kind of night!


Tatlong Kwento ni Lola Basyang

When I was very young, I enjoyed stories being told by my grandmother and my aunt. I guess it was one of the blessings I am thankful I got to experience while growing up. These stories were a mix of fairytales, legends, and stories with lessons. It stirred my imagination and creativity. This is precisely what Tatlong Kwento ni Lola Basyang gives its viewers. A fantasy filled stories told through dancing!

I was one of the people who got lucky to find a promo Tatlong Kwento ni Lola Basyang’s show in Aliw theater. This is the opening show for the 20th performance season of Ballet Manilla.

The 3 stories told by Lola Basyang, performed by Luz Fernandez (the original Lola Basyang’s voice from the radio drama show in the 80s) are “Ang Principe ng Mga Ibon,” Ang kapatid ng Tatlong Maria,” and “Ang Mahiwagang Biyulin."

Ang Prinsipe ng mga Ibon is about a princess who fell in love with a bird prince. Their love was tested when the princess’ father disapproved their unusual relationship even after the bird prince saved the princess from the Giants that threatened the kingdom. 

Ang Kapatid ng Tatlong Maria is a story of a brother who was set by his parents to find his three sisters who were captured by a beast. I would say that the kids would really enjoy the huge snake!

Ang Mahiwagang Biyulin is the lightest story of the three. It also has this comedic touch which will make the audience laugh. This is a story of a poor boy who worked hard for a rich man for years but was not paid accordingly. He was rewarded by an old lady with a magical violin that can put people to trance when played because of the poor boy’s kindness and generosity.

The three stories will surely fill your eyes with colors, your ears with beautiful music, and their dances will leave you at awe. If you want your kids to start appreciating arts at a young age, have them see performances like this!
