Free passes to NIDO science center

MANILA, Philippines - You can now treat your kids to a fun-filled day of science adventure at the NIDO Fortified Science Discovery Center for free when you buy specially-marked NIDO products at SM Supermarket branches.

Each NIDO Fortified 2.5 kg., 1.8 kg., or NIDO 3+ 1.4 kg. label entitles visitors to one free pass to the science center. Meanwhile, those bringing in a NIDO Fortified 900 g. or NIDO 3+ 1 kg. label get P120 discount off the entrance ticket.

“The promo is a joint initiative of SM and NIDO Fortified to make science more accessible to kids,” says Joseph Eugene David, Nestle Philippines, Inc. (NPI) business executive manager for Dairy, Health & Nutrition Solutions Business Unit.

To claim the pass or discounted ticket, visitors must present a valid NIDO Fortified or NIDO 3+ label bearing the promo sticker at the NIDO Fortified Science Discovery Center.

The center provides kids an exciting learning experience. Inside its two-level 3,000-square meter facility are nine walk-through galleries designed to teach science to kids and adults alike through fun, interactive activities. It is part of NIDO Fortified’s commitment to promote science education to Filipino school children through experiential learning.

“Experiential learning provides students the opportunity to construct the understanding necessary to produce deeper learning. Students learn better and faster through exploration, discovery and interaction. Thus, we need to create such an environment that encourages and inspires our children to love science,” says Dr. Josette Biyo, grand winner of the 2002 Intel ISEF Excellence in Teaching Award.

The NIDO Fortified Science Discovery Center is located at the Entertainment Mall of the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City. Promo runs until Dec. 31.
