Toddler's Top 5 Today

It's been quite a long time since I posted a top 5 today simply because I've been hibernating these past few weeks. The bun in the oven enters the 17th week and I'm excited to enter my second trimester and be jolly and always on the move like most pregnants are during this stage.

Moving on, these are my toddler's top 5 milestones!

1- Simple Math is a breeze! Addition and Subtraction on my fingers are so far the best way to teach him while having fun and learning fast.

2 - Family-oriented. He always do the roll call after waking up. Calling everyone to enter the elevator and making sure we all are walking together when were strolling including holding hands together, not to mention, the group hug (more like, head hug) in public. Yup, PDA much!

3 - I never introduced him to lollies but his Pedia did. Well, its her truce for putting him to a painful ordeal every month, he he he. I'm just glad that he still chooses brocolli over chocolate and fruits over candies. Especially when I told him it's his favorite even when it's his first time. ;)

4 -  He loves the water so much. Instead of telling him he'll go take bath, I would encourage him by saying "we'll go play water downstairs and you'll get to car-wash your favorite dump truck", it always do the trick! ;)

5) Masha and the Bear - is his current favorite on Youtube! :)

 

Of course I'll end this post with a cute story!

We were on a fancy restaurant for a meeting and like always, I have Clyde tagging along. I was surprise to see his face light up, help himself up on a chair and start digging the food. I thought he would go for the mozzarella stick, as that is where his hand is going, until he picked up the garnish - a fresh-cut of green lettuce and afterwards help himself fish out the basil leaves on the pizza. lol

My Daily Brushing Regimen: Redefining The Way You See Clean

Your smile depends on simple dental care habits such as brushing and flossing. The question is, are you using the right techniques?

A beautiful smile greatly depends on personal dental habits. To achieve not just a nice smile but also a healthy one, it’s important to engage in an effective routine. A dazzling smile begins with good oral health care, which is always linked to proper brushing techniques. Keeping your teeth thoroughly clean helps in keeping cavities at bay.[1]  The main components of a healthy routine include flossing and brushing, and here’s how to know if you are doing it effectively.[2]

Brush thoroughly. Most people brush in a rush because they’re always in a hurry.[3] It takes 120 seconds or two full minutes of short gentle strokes to get all the dirt out of the surface of the teeth, with concentration on the gumline, hard-to-reach back teeth, and areas with fillings and crowns. Another part of brushing thoroughly is by knowing the proper technique. This includes cleaning the outer surfaces of your upper teeth then your lower teeth, then the inner surfaces, the chewing surfaces, and then tongue and cheeks.[4] Brushing twice a day is effective in keeping your teeth healthy.[5]

Floss regularly. Flossing is critical in your routine because it removes plaque and food particles in places one’s toothbrush can’t reach. Plaque build-up is often what causes cavities which is why it’s important to floss at least twice a day, right before brushing, to dislodge food particles stuck between teeth.[6]

Use the right equipment and keep them clean. Healthy oral care is linked with the equipment you use: your toothbrush and your toothpaste. It starts by keeping your toothbrush clean at all times by rinsing it thoroughly after using.[7] It is wise to also air-dry your toothbrush until you use it again.

The goal is to clean beyond the surface, and really go deep in terms of cleaning your teeth, even the hard-to-reach places. This is the reason why one needs to use a toothpaste that cleans deep – now possible with the Colgate Total® Charcoal Deep Clean – a unique clinically proven toothpaste which contains Ultra Micro Charcoal particles. Its unique formulation penetrates deep into hard-to-reach places and reduces bacteria build up by up to 90% versus regular fluoride toothpaste 12 hours after brushing.

It’s time to redefine clean with the new Colgate Total® Charcoal Deep Clean.
