Weekly Toddler/Preschooler Playgroup is a blast!

One of our most popular and consistent events is the weekly Wednesday momstown Toddler/Preschooler playgroup. Geared at similar aged kids it offers an excellent opportunity for both the energy driven monkeys to socialise and interact in a casual forum and for our mamas to meet up regularly and form lasting friendships.


Our moms rotate homes or visit places in Milton together and have great fun every Wednesday morning.

You're welcome to join in on the fun on Wednesdays (or anyday at our other great events!). Email info.milton@momstown.ca for any membership questions.

Waddle, waddle Penguins!

P is for Penguin! That was the name of our fun momstown event on Friday!

Almost everyone dressed in black and white to show off their penguin colours. While the babies chilled on our mats, the toddlers & preschoolers made some penguin pictures and collages.

Everyone was given a penguin "egg" to use for the penguin waddle race. Mamas with babes in arms demonstrated first how to walk and protect your egg! Laughably funny to watch and fun had by all!


Now, getting the toddlers & preschoolers to do this was darn right impossible, from the waddles with an egg to even just lining up together. So their "eggs" were mostly tossed and chased down the hall which at least exhausted them enough for circle time around the parachute.

We bounced the 'eggs' on the parachute, sang some penguin songs and finger plays to learn a bit more about how penguins slip & slide and their coats of black & white.

Thanks to all who came out and especially to our new members! We had several newbies out and it's great to see you jumping in and getting involved right off that bat. As we all know, you just need to jump in as soon as possible and then you see the great atmosphere our moms bring and you'll be inspired to come out more and more after that initial attendance.

If you're new and thinking about joining, contact info.milton@momstown.ca for more info on our 2 week trial membership.
