In the show's segment 'Dad-diskarte,' Drew pointed out that there are a lot of things at your home which you can use for making these DIY and environment-friendly flashcards.

He noted, “Ang homeschooling ng mga chikiting medyo challenging lalo na kung kulang-kulang ang mga gamit for teaching.

“Pero kung maparaan, kayang-kayang solusyunan yan. Kung 'di kaya bumili sa stores o online, sa paggawa ng teaching aids for the kids, imagination n'yo lang ang limit.

“Tumingin-tingin lang sa paligid at siguradong may magagamit at hindi lang namamalayan ay nagamit n'yo na ang iba't ibang bagay sa bahay n'yo. Tipid na nga, environment friendly pa.”

The award-winning travel host also mentioned some alternative ways for parents to educate their kids.

“Ang edukasyon sa ating mga chikiting sa bahay puwede din samahan ng non-academic na activities tulad ng pagtuturo ng fine motor skills at responsibilidad sa paggawa ng simple activities like household chores.”
