Getting Ready For The Future - What Parents Need To Know


Assalamualaikum!


Other than sharing stories about my daughters, I also love to share about good education, fresh ideas on how our children can make progress in school. As a mother of two, I can't help but to give more priorities especially in the aspect of education in the early years and providing them the right tools to think more creatively and be independent.

As the saying goes, it's more blessed to give than receive. I believe in providing the good education for our children is the best thing we can do as parents. Every children has the right to be in school but not only to gain knowledge but from the knowledge itself, they are able to unleash their unique potential.

Kidzania Kidz Vs Food 2.0 Kembali!


Assalamualaikum!


Zaman dulu, mak-mak kita tak bagi kita masuk dapur tolong diaorang masak, betul tak? Duduk kejap nak tengok pun diaorang akan suruh kita pergi ruang tamu tengok citer kartun atau main anak patung hehe. Tapi zaman sekarang ni, ibu-ibu sudah mula memberi peluang kepada anak-anak untuk bersama-sama didapur memasak. 

Dua-dua anakku perempuan dan sebagai ibu, aku sangat menggalakkan diaorang masuk dapur.  Setiap kali aku masuk dapur nak memasak, dia dua beradik akan berebut offer nak tolong potong itu ini, basuh beras dan lain-lain lagi. Untuk permulaan, mereka diajar untuk buat benda yang senang-senang dulu macam  basuh beras, basuh sayur, kopek kulit telur rebus, dan pukul telur. Lama-kelamaan bila Wani dah cekap sikit, aku akan ajar dia cara potong fishball. Potong fishball pun bukan guna pisau tajam tu, tapi gantikan dengan pengupas kulit kentang hehe. Tapi itu kira ok la kan, dia pun seronok nak tolong lagi.



Majlis pelancaran diserikan dengan acara memotong pulut kuning oleh En. Shahrul Nizar Ahmad bersama rakan-rakan industri yang terlibat dalam program 'Kidz vs Food 2.0'


Memasak bersama anak-anak boleh menjadi aktiviti yang menggembirakan! Untuk itu, Kidzania Kuala Lumpur telah melancarkan program kegemaran ramai, 'Kidz vs Food 2.0' dari 25 November hingga 31 Disember 2017, dengan lebih banyak aktiviti memasak menarik sepanjang cuti sekolah ini!

Penganjuran kali kedua ini, Kidzania berhasrat untuk memupuk minat memasak di kalangan kanak-kanak dan menjadikan ia sebagai satu kemahiran hidup asas, serta memberi mereka inspirasi untuk menyajikan hidangan kepada ibubapa.


Sharul Nizar Ahmad, Datuk Bandar Kidzania Kuala Lumpur


"Kali ini, terdapat beberapa kelainan dalam 'Kidz vs Food 2.0' - kanak-kanak bukan sekadar akan mempelajari cara memasak hidangan ringkas, malah mereka akan turut menyediakan hidangan untuk ibubapa mereka. Menerusi aktiviti ini, mereka akan memahami bahawa setiap makanan yang dihidangkan sebenarnya memerlukan usaha yang gigih untuk memastikan ia dapat disajikan dengan sempurna," kata Sharul Nizar Ahmad, Datuk Bandar Kidzania Kuala Lumpur.

"'Kidz vs Food 2.0' diperkenalkan untuk memberi peluang kepada kanak-kanak merasai sendiri keseronokan memasak, serta memberi inspirasi kepada mereka untuk menyertai aktiviti yang disediakan. Kanak-kanak boleh cuba memasak sendiri resepi-resepi mudah dalam sesi Pop-up Kitchen kami. Menerusi resepi yang  mudah dan ringkas ini, mereka akan berasa lebih yakin untuk menyediakan hidangan yang boleh dinikmati bersama keluarga. Para tenaga pengajar akan berkongsi tips dan idea masakan, contohnya hidangan yang boleh disediakan untuk keluarga ketika majlis istimewa, atau cara mennghias hidangan ringkas agar ia kelihatan lebih lazat! Bukan itu saja, dengan menerapkan elemen menyeronokkan dalam makanan seperti melalui sesi Food Art dan Food Science, kanak-kanak akan lebih berminat dan teruja untuk menunjukkan kemahiran memasak kepada ibubapa mereka."

Pelancaran program 'Kidz vs Food 2.0' turut diserikan lagi dengan penyertaan rakan-rakan industri seperti Young Chefs Academy (YCA), SHARP, Canon, F&N dan Lifebuoy yang menyokong usaha tersebut.





Menerusi Cooking Workshop yang diadakan pada hujung minggu, chef-chef profesional daripada Young Chefs Academy akan berkongsi ilmu dan kepakaran mereka dalam bidang masakan dengan berkongsi resepi pencuci mulut dan savuri bersama peserta. Kanak-kanak juga berpeluang menyertai pertandingan ‘KidZ vs Food 2.0’ dan bakal memenangi baucar kelas memasak di Young Chefs Academy yang memberi mereka peluang untuk mempelajari lebih banyak tips hidangan ringkas dan sihat di sekolah memasak untuk kanak-kanak tersebut.

dengan dibantu oleh Kidzania KL Congrezz Member, adik Sophia Zara


“Program seperti ‘KidZ vs Food 2.0’ adalah cara terbaik untuk menarik minat kanak-kanak,” kata Chef Selebriti, Brian Chen dan Pengasas Young Chefs Academy. “Kanak-kanak akan berasa lebih teruja untuk memasak apabila mereka mempelajari bagaimana sesuatu hidangan disediakan. Mereka perlu dididik tentang asal usul bahan makanan, cara ia terhasil dan bagaimana ia dihasilkan sebelum dijual di pasaraya. Ini akan menjadikan mereka lebih seronok untuk menerokai dunia makanan.”

“Untuk permulaan, kongsikan hidangan yang ringkas serta yang digemari oleh kanak-kanak. Saya pasti mereka akan berasa bangga dengan hasil air tangan sendiri dan seterusnya menjadi lebih berminat untuk bereksperimen dengan pelbagai jenis bahan untuk mencipta hidangan mereka sendiri,” tambah Chef Brian. 

KidZ vs Food 2.0’ akan menampilkan 4 segmen berbeza untuk aktiviti hari biasa dan hari minggu seperti Pop-up Kitchen, Food Science, Food Art dan Cooking Workshop. Menerusi aktiviti-aktiviti ini, kanak-kanak akan mempelajari aspek-aspek berbeza dalam penyediaan makanan melalui panduan-panduan mudah dan penggunaan peralatan dapur. Mereka akan mempelajari tentang adab ketika makan, mencuba eksperimen sains serta memperoleh tips dan nasihat daripada chef-chef profesional. Setiap aktiviti menjanjikan pengalaman sukar dilupakan untuk kanak-kanak dan ibu bapa.

Dettol On A Mission for Hygiene!


School programme to educate young Malaysians about hygiene habits for better health

Assalamualaikum!

Malaysia’s No.1 Germ Protection brand*, Dettol and the Ministry of Education jointly kicked off the ‘Mission for Hygiene’ school programme at Sekolah Kebangsaan Seksyen 7 Shah Alam today. Currently in its fourth year running, the programme aims to promote healthy hygiene habits among school children by actively educating them to practice hygiene habits in school and at home. This includes playing a part in keeping their school a clean, healthy and safe environment for the school community.


Present at the programme’s opening ceremony was Tiffany Tang, Marketing Director of Reckitt Benckiser Malaysia and Singapore, which manufactures and markets Dettol products in these countries. She said: “As a leading global hygiene brand, Dettol is proud to be the trusted hygiene champion for mothers around the world, to help her protect her family from harmful germs through our wide range of innovative germ-protection products. We understand how good hygiene and sanitation can improve individual and public health. This is why it is important for Dettol to lead hand hygiene education from young age.

According to Tang, the brand is an advocate of hygiene education worldwide through its partnership with Save the Children, a non-government organisation (NGO) to stop children in underdeveloped countries from dying of diarrhea due to poor hygiene and sanitation.

Tiffany Tang, Marketing Director of Reckitt Benckiser Malaysia and Singapore is sharing about Dettol’s initiative to educate the school children of the importance of good hygiene at Dettol’s Mission for Hygiene launch

“In Malaysia, ‘Mission for Hygiene’ has seen us reached close to 350,000 school students over the last four years, and together with the Ministry of Education, we have continuously enhance the quality of hygiene education in participating schools with the involvement of parents. In the next 10 years, we aim to reach all of 2.7 million primary school children in Malaysia,” added Tang.

She continued, “We strongly believe that one should start young in terms of practicing good hygiene habits. Dettol ‘Mission for Hygiene’ programme is designed to educate school children the importance of good hygiene habits including 7 steps of hand washing. We hope this will help to raise the awareness of Hand Foot Mouth Disease in Malaysia and how hygiene practices can keep it at bay.”

As the brand is working actively towards expanding the campaign to more schools, Dettol aims to reach another 150,000 students in 200 primary schools and 50 kindergartens in Malaysia throughout the year of 2017.

Dettol understands that keeping the school compound clean and germ-free is vital for students to have a good learning environment. This year, participating primary schools are encouraged to conduct a series of ‘Gotong Royong’ (communal cooperation) activities related to toilet cleanliness. Schools taking part in the ‘Gotong Royong’ contest will submit ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos of their toilets. They are also required to create a Dettol logo mural in front of the school’s toilet with Dettol’s ‘Mission for Hygiene’ theme: Better Hygiene, Better Health that will serve as a reminder to the school children to wash their hands.

Y.B Tuan P. Kamalanathan, Deputy Minister of Ministry of Education talks about the importance of school hygiene and the students’ roles in making Dettol’s ‘Mission for Hygiene’ a success

During the opening ceremony, YB Dato' P. Kamalanathan, Deputy Minister of Education, stressed the importance of school hygiene and the students’ roles in making Dettol’s ‘Mission for Hygiene’ a success. “Studies have shown that the school environment can affect attendance rate and student achievement. Therefore, it is imperative for schools to be tidy and clean, in order to provide students a conducive learning environment.

Good hygiene habits should be propagated in the school curriculum to prevent harmful germs spread in the classroom environment. Poor hygiene habits will lead to harbouring germs on their hands transmit to places they touch at school. This will lead to absenteeism, which then affects our students’ learning momentum and progress,” he said. 

“It’s crucial to practice good hygiene habits at school to prevent harmful micro-organisms from spreading around. Besides regular efforts from the school administration and our hardworking janitors, our students must also learn to play their respective roles in keeping their school environment clean and healthy. From a young age, we need to cultivate personal hygiene habits, and slowly but surely, guide them towards taking the initiative to wash their hands before meals, flush after using the toilet, help clean the classroom, pick up litter in common areas, and so on. These small efforts will make a big difference in helping to prevent the spreading of germs, so that our schools offer cleaner, healthier environment that promote learning and academic excellence for the leaders of tomorrow,” continued YB Dato' P. Kamalanathan. 

YB Dato’ P. Kamalanathan demonstrate the 7 steps of hand washing to the school children

To promote awareness and encourage participation among the children, Dettol has designed a number of exciting activities, such as: hand hygiene education sketching to engage students so that they understand the importance of hand hygiene; 7 steps of hand washing, which shows them a full demonstration on how to clean their hands properly; goodie bags containing educational leaflets for parents; and continuous reminders at school with posters in toilets and canteens.

YB Dato’ P. Kamalanathan officiated the wall mural of Dettol Mission for Hygiene theme – “Better Hygiene, Better Health” at Sekolah Kebangsaan Seksyen 7, Shah Alam

Better hygiene, better health. With this in mind, Dettol hopes that everyone comes together through its ‘Mission for Hygiene’ programme to play their part in ensuring a cleaner, healthier, and safer school environment for our future generation.
