5 Family-Friendly Board Games to Play Online


My husband is a huge online gamer, so it comes as no surprise that my kids are too. Well, aside from the fact that everything has shifted online these days.

So my husband and kids would play online games together, a bonding between father and his children, which for me is a sight for sore eyes. But the thing is, I always feel left out whenever they play. You see, I am not an online gamer. Sure, I play some online games, but not what their games are like. So sometimes, I feel like I am the not-fun mom. Lol!

Gone are the days when the family would gather around the table and play offline games or board games, just like how my family used to. This is just a part of my childhood that I miss, which I hope to bring to life with my own family.

And the good thing is, I actually can! I can bring the old-good games back to life with a modern touch. I'm glad I stumbled upon https://www.calculators.org/games/ a website that offers a variety of fun games for kids and just about everyone. They even have board games that we can play as a family, yes with me actually playing with them. Lol!

How to budget for your dream family home


There is no place like home! And, I'm very grateful that we have a place we can call home and live comfortably, especially during the pandemic. But you see, it's not really ours. We've been living with my in-laws in a condo for a while now. They also have a family home, but we opt to live in a condo because of its many perks, such as its safety - 24/7 security and resort-style amenities that the kids can enjoy anytime. But, this pandemic has got us thinking about getting our own place. Of course, we've been dreaming about our perfect family home for years, but it's only now that we've given this some serious thought. We’ve even drawn up a few sketches of what we imagine it to look like.

But, you might be asking, "is buying a real estate property a sensible decision during the pandemic?" Well, my husband and I have been reading about it, and the answer is, yes! Why? Low-Interest Rates, Discounted Prices, and Flexible Payment Schemes In spite of several challenges impacting both global and local economies, the Philippine real estate sector had a good start this 2022.
