Truly Rich Recommendations: Play Pilipinas 2011 Event

As a homeschooling mom who believes that children, especially young ones, learn best through play*, I highly recommend this event:


Here are a few details about it from their website www.playpilipinas.org. You may also check out their Facebook page here.

The event will feature:
Exhibits from toy designers, manufacturers and distributors showcasing the latest in toys, playground equipment, books, fashion and lots of other innovations:
