that will interest parents study by the National University Hospital done in 2011,
and families! a majority of kids aren’t consuming the recommended
amount of milk!
Recognising this, Abbott recently launched GROW Readyto-Drink, a delicious beverage filled with 26 vitamins
and minerals and prebiotics. It’s specially designed for
children aged between three and 12 and comes in two
flavours, vanilla and chocolate.
We personally like how convenient the drink is, making it
easy for you to pack it into your children’s lunch boxes.
GROW Ready-to-Drink is available at all leading
supermarkets. A pack of six goes for S$7.20 (with GST).
A Space For Your Tweens
They’re one of the thought leaders and leading
retailers in children’s play and now, IKEA has
launched a new range of home furnishing items
specially catered to the tweens (eight- to 12-yearolds) in your family.
Inspire teenybopper dreams, add a touch of
attitude or go psychedelic – whatever your child’s
aspirations are, there are furniture pieces to
achieve it. We appreciate how these pieces, which
are part of the Children’s IKEA range, have been
lovingly developed based on expert knowledge
from both child psychologists and children, and not
stodgy, boring adults.
Our personal favourite is the quirky RETSAM door
tags that help to convey the different moods of
your tweens!
The new Children’s IKEA range for eight- to
12-year-olds is available at IKEA Alexandra and
IKEA Tampines. Let your kid be a part of the
exclusive kid’s club called småles to enjoy even
more benefits. Registration is absolutely free.

Nutrition On The Go
The number one brand for children health supplements in Singapore just
created a new flavour for its bestselling Scott’s Multivitamins & Minerals
supplement and we’re big fans of it! A
natural progression for children who grew
up with Scott’s Cod Liver Oil Emulsion,
Scott’s Multivitamins & Minerals has only
been grape-flavoured for the longest time
until just recently, with the new addition of
tangerine into its line-up.
Thankfully, everything else that is
wholesome about it remains consistent.
The chewable supplements contains
Vitamins A, B, C and D, Calcium and other
ingredients that help to maintain the good
health of children.
We say: reach out for one when you’re at
the pharmacies the next time!
Scott’s Multivitamins & Minerals –
Tangerine can be purchased at leading
supermarkets and pharmacies all over
the island.

A Bath
Your children will look forward
to bath time now with the
Funky Farm Bathtime Fun Kit
by Baylis & Harding! Suitable
for both kids and adults, the
bath items comes in three fruity
flavours – strawberry, bubble
gum and mint – but we wouldn’t
recommend tasting them to find
out though!
We love the cute animal
illustrations and vibrant colours
on the bath and shower gels,
and we’re certain your child (and
perhaps even you!) will love it too.
The kit items are hypoallergenic and pH-balanced, so delicate and
sensitive skins won’t get irritated when using the products.
Funky Farm Bathtime Fun Kit retails at S$14.90 and can be purchased at
Watsons outlets.
