Jeremy's favourite brands

As the saying goes, " You gotta start that when they are young". Modern advertisement and commercialisation strategy actually do have an impact on young kids nowadays. Even Jeremy at this age is able to identify brands that will probably have a lasting impression as he progresses with his journey in life. So what I have done here is to list down some of his favourite brands over the past one year.


1. Disney

No one can beat Disney's influence on young kids. With the influence of Playhouse Disney, Mickey Mouse and gang more often than not are the ones first recognised by toddlers all over the world. As for Jeremy, with reinforcement from his trip to HK Disneyland last year, Disney is probably most recognised brand in the eyes of the 3 year old Jeremy.



2. BMW

Jeremy can recognise a BMW from miles away. I probably attribute to the fact that BMW's new and old do have some distinctive features like the kidney grilles and long bonnet shapes that make them easily identifiable.

Let's hope that Jeremy does not have only one car preference when he grows up !



3. Petronas

This is all because he fell down and cut himself while we stopped at the Karak Petronas station a couple of months back (We were on the way to Tanjung Jara). Until now, everytime he sees a Petronas station, he will remind us 'Yang Shan fell down in Green petrol station ah'.



4. AmBank Group

Tan Sri Azman Hashim should be fairly pleased if he hears this. The logo on top of the Amcorp Mall is such an icon. Everytime we drive past PJ along the Federal Highway, Jeremy will get 'ecstatic' and adjust himself inside the car to ensure he gets a perfect view of the AmBank logo ! Sometimes, when he is at my inlaw's place, he will try to coax his grandpa to take a short drive for him to look at the AmBank logo. bizarre.....bizarre indeed.



5. Happy Cow cheese

I really could not anticipate this one. Somehow to Jeremy its Happy Cow is the 'mother of all cheese' - just like Colgate being synonymous to toothpaste

Everytime he goes to supermarket, Jeremy can spot the Happy Cow cheese tucked in the corner. He will then point to it and look into my eyes and say' Yang Shan likes Happy Cow cheese ah. Mommy please buy cheese'
