NESTLÉ NANKID RESHAPE GLAMP

Encourage every child in whatever interest they currently have at the moment that will help them find their place in this world as they grow up and parents are responsible to mold them into well-rounded individual. For the kids and parents to reach that goal of a better future, Nestle NANKID hosted the NANKID Reshape Glamp. A fun filled summer afternoon with exciting activities for the young ones. The camp event aimed to nurture child's personality, overall behavior and showcasing optimal nutrition—the essentials in promoting and obtaining child’s optimal growth. During the event, the guests gear up for an exciting adventure ahead, parents and their children met with their camp masters that explained the camp rules and were given camp essentials they can use at every campsite activity.  

FISHING FOR NUTRITION

Parents and kids gamely went fishing for nutrition tips. Here, they learned that good nutrition, such as that provided by Nestlé NANKID, plays a major role in ensuring that an individual grows up to be healthy physically and cognitively.

PLAY MOUNTAIN

Parents and children threw a giant dice to get to the summit and finish the positivity trail. They could land on a space that makes it faster for them to reach the summit, but they could also land on a space that would force them to go back several notches. Each space had a message for the parents and kids to make them reflect on the moves they have taken. Through the game, children realize that challenges and difficulties can actually be growth opportunities.

STORYTELLING SESSIONS  

Everyone gathered together for a short and interactive storytelling session. Led by a camp master, kids had to run, hop, jump, and interact with others to tell stories. This fun-filled activity showed the parents how kids easily mirror their actions and the people around them.

  

DEAR FUTURE CHILD

Parents also reflected on their aspirations for their children, where they wrote letters expressing their commitment to do their best in helping their children prepare for life’s ever-changing challenges and complexities in the years to come.  

The Nestle Nankid Reshape Glamp was held at Enderun Colleges last May 21, 2019. The Belo-Kho family was also present during the camp with the very adorable Scarlet Snow. Kids had so much fun enjoying every camp site that were provided even me and my daughter. 

“A camping adventure allows children and their families to encounter obstacles from which they can see as growth opportunities, especially the importance of staying positive and thinking creatively.  Skills and capabilities are traits that can be developed if one has an optimal growth mindset, which is what this Reshape Glamp intends to do. These, along with optimal nutrition with the help of Nestlé NANKID, aids in continuing the advocacy to reshape the future and open a world full of possibilities,” said Ms. Jean Espino, Vice President for Marketing, Nestlé Premium Milks.  

Don’t miss the opportunity to help reshape your children’s future and unlock the possibilities of tomorrow, today. Visit www.facebook.com/NANKIDOPTIPRO for more details.
