As children of the islands, we grow up basking in the eternal summer. A few months out of the year, monsoon rains prevail, whipping our homes with heavy droplets and whirling ípuípo (tornado).
As we go through life, our families are with us, and we are never left alone. The children of Bathalà (Great Creator) are exposed to epics, stories, and songs in varying languages. Diversity is experienced early on.
As kids grow into adulthood, these memories prevail. Myth, Magic, and Children reminds us of Filipino childhood and how magical it is to be a child of the islands, in our archipelago of stories.
