Spiders and Bats- Baby Book club




It's been a spooktacular week for momstown Milton! On Wednesday, children of all ages enjoyed October's Baby book club with a theme of spiders and bats! The children looked great in their Halloween costumes, as did the moms who also dressed for the occasion! During our time together, we read books about bats and spiders, sang songs, read poems, played games and danced.

The toddlers especially enjoyed jumping up and down to '10 Little Spiders Jumping on the Web'! The fun didn't stop there, after circle time, every child got to create at least 1 Halloween art activity. The young babies used their handprints to paint the wings of a bat, while the toddlers got to decorate a bat puppet and make a spider puppet. A fantastic time was had by all!

Momstown Milton- Tadpoles and Goldfish Halloween Playdate


It was a full house on Monday when momstown Milton Tadpoles and Goldfish playgroup celebrated their first Halloween at Sharkey's. There were 3 tigers, a skunk, 2 cows, a rabbit, and elephant and a turtle! The little ones looked great! Babies gummed a little treat while moms indulged in cupcakes, cookies and fruit. The babies then played amongst themselves while the moms enjoyed some adult conversation and discussed various topics ranging from sleepless nights, crawling and feeding. The costumes were adorable, now if we could only get them to all look at the camera!

Mom's Night Out at Simply Creative


Last night a few Momstown mama's enjoyed a nice night out at Simply Creative ceramic studio. With tons of ceramic pieces to chose from, picking the perfect piece was half the work! With the holidays around the corner, it's hard to not think of possible gift ideas when looking at the shelves of ceramics. Last night, many of our pieces were Christmas themed.
Each ceramic needs 3 layers of paint, which might sound like a daunting task, but with the good company of other Momtown members, the time just flies! A good time was had by all and we're all looking forward to our next Mom's night out at Simply Creative! Looking forward to next month's night out at Simply Creative, hope more moms can come out! A good time is guaranteed!

Gratifying Run for the Cure!

Despite the cold & rain members from momstown Milton graciously ran & walked in the Run for the Cure yesterday. Our Milton moms ran at the Burlington site combined with momstown Oakville & momstown Burlington. Everyone was super excited in advance but nothing can compare to the actual day itself and the emotion of crossing the finish line.


Collectively, all of our momstown chapters raised almost $10,000 for the cause, simply incredible. Thank-you everyone who participated and donated. Well Done!!
