Education is the greatest gift you can give your child. As parents, we prioritize the safety of our children above all, but at the same time, we also want to make sure that they are prepared for their future by providing them with proper education despite this pandemic. While ensuring the safety of our kids and preparing them for the new normal for learning, a lot of parents and kids are caught up in the whirlwind by trying to cope up with the distance learning and setting up all the needed apps or software to be prepared for an online class, which all of us parents can relate since we have been used to dropping our kids at school and picking them up once school ends.

Best Bicycles for an Uphill Climb

Riding your bike around the city is a great way to unwind or add some exercise and variety to your daily commute. When your route includes a hill, you want a bike that can handle the incline. That’s why it’s important to find a women's beach cruiser bike with gears or other style that makes tackling hills a breeze. Follow this handy guide to find the best bike for heading uphill. Gears Are Your Friend Adjustable gears make it possible to ride your bike across a wide variety of terrain. If you’re planning to take on rolling hills on a regular basis, look for a bike that has multiple gears. There are great options for 7-speed or 21-speed models among bikes for women .

  When hard times strike and traditional resources are out of reach, the most creative of us can find ingenious ways to make one-of-a-kind works of art. This is especially true for Filipinos—and no one proves our resourcefulness and creativity more than this amazing Grade 12 artist, who didn’t need paint or pencils to create artwork. No, Vincent Dwight Paulo from Nueva Ecija uses banana catsup to draw portraits of famous personalities while staying at home during the community quarantine. While he first started with a catsup portrait back in 2018, it was during the quarantine when he really started honing this unique art skill. “I really engaged myself in doing catsup art since school and art supplies shops were closed,” said Vincent. “I was running out of materials, so I used catsup instead.” With creating catsup art being only a hobby for him, Vincent never thought it would become as popular as it did. Working with catsup Catsup was not the first medium he had used to create art, but
