Dear Steemit friends,

FORMAT
When we tackle about the format of the blog, it is mostly about alignments, layout of the blog, font size and style, emphasis on some words, paragraph formatting and the overall view of the article. This also includes the author's original style (if happens to have one) and headers and footers embedded on it.
The author used traditional style of blog formatting, allowing all paragraphs to be aligned left. The usage of text dividers defined the author as one who knows well how to make the appearance of her blog pleasing in the eyes of the viewers. Using bullets to enumerate a certain list is also a good point. The readers may remember well what the author tries to inculcate on their minds.
Having a good heading sets the mood for the readers who are beginning to read all through out the blog. A quote which is well-sourced can also leave trails to readers what they would likely expect to read on the content of the article. It adds interests to subscribers, thus allowing them to predict something valuable on the message the author wanted to convey.

CONTENT
When we talk about content, this features the topic discussed by the author. This also includes typographical errors, grammar, selection of words and additional messages as if you are connecting with your audience.
There were minimal typographical errors to be seen. Some goes unnoticed, yet some are quite obvious. As for the grammar, we were not that strict not to reconsider. As much as possible, we want it to be an informative, educative review wherein you will develop more after you learned from your mistakes. Some punctuations marks were missing. The usage of the word their and there made a slight confusion on the author. "Their" is used to signify other's possesion, while "there" is used to point a certain subject. You might not want to be repeating the same mistakes again, so we did a little correction.
We loved how the words used appear to be inviting. If you happen to be a parent or a guardian, you may want to follow the author's lead and take you to a place she would recommend for your summer vacation. The content was really suggestive and seeks for your response to her invitation. Clever enough to point out some options you can freely choose. And her motherly love and affection was easily distinguished because of her advices written on the closing.

PICTURES
Photos were edited through an application compiling more photos to make it one standard(in size, not in capacity), high-resolution image. But the watermark is clearly seen at the bottom right view of the image.
Images were clear and sharp. No blurred parts to be seen. Colors were not that fancy and not too saturated. With the proper blend of contrast and brightness from a high-end smartphone, you can capture these images. Maybe next time we suggest that you may include what device was used. We're not stating that this is necessary, it is just our recommendation.
The caption written at the bottom of the pictures gave enough description on what was happening. We suggest that the author use subscript for text captions and not to make it strong or bold.

As parents, we always need to consider our child's fun and enjoyment. We always made the choices for them, not even asking them if they also liked what we selected for them. A child may not know better than you do. But a child also has his privileges and rights that were needed to be considered. If we want them to grow as a fine, good mannered lady/gentleman, we should be the one setting an example. Always remeber, "It is easier to build up a child, than it is to repair an adult."
This initiative is made to expose a good epitome of a quality blog from a novice Steemian for further enhancement and to inspire others.
