Art in the Park!!!

Paint, paint and more paint!

Our momstown seasonal favourite "Picasso's in the Park" opened today and on such a beautifully sunny day!!

Both momstown Milton and momstown Burlington gathered at Lowville park to explore the sensory elements of paint. I think the mamas explored too (I know I came home covered in paint also!).

The weather was so great for a picnic and play in the playground too.

Join us next month for our June Picasso's event (and the creek will be warm enough then to wash the paint right off us!).

Mother's Day in the Park

momstown Milton was busy in the park today prepping our special gifts for Mother's Day for grandmas, and maybe even for ourselves!

Our new Event Co-ordinator Kristi Budsworth did an awesome job of prepping a great morning for us all with our themed spring crafts, fun parachute time and storytime with Eric Carle's Does a Kangaroo have a Mother, too? Here's Kristi with her sweet Campbell - look for Kristi as the lead at many of momstown Milton events this summer!
Proud kids planted beautiful flowers for mom and decorated the pots.Psst - don't tell Lauren I took a picture of the flower she planted me as she hid it under her bed as a surprise! She thinks I had my eyes closed while helping her I guess...

Great idea for a flower bouquet here as well! Toilet paper roll glued to the back of the plate as the "vase", then the kids painted the plate, stuck Easter grass in the vase then made beautiful coffee filter flowers with pipe cleaner stems. Voila! Wall worthy art! Join us later this month for Baby Book Club when we explore the 'Under the Sea' theme!

Razzle Dazzle Field Trip!

Our group took a trip south to Oakville to visit Dazzle Art and mixed and mingled with the momstown Oakville group.

Very cute play area complete with interactive sensory bins, art supplies and a great clean open space. Our monkeys all loved it!

Thanks Oakville Janet for also setting up the party room just for momstown with painted butterflies and foam doorhangers and for the home baked muffins and coffee!! yum!

First Baby Book Club is off to a great start with yummy carrots!

We kicked off our first baby book club of the summer with some songs and fingerplays. Our focus for the event was carrots.






Babies, toddlers and their mommies listened as Kristi read a The Carrot Seed (fiction) followed by The Lifecycle of a Carrot (nonfiction).





After more songs and fingerplays, the little ones took off their onesies and put their bodies into the art.

The toddlers enjoyed gluing tissue paper and painting with CARROTS.

That's correct no brushes at this event.

Well, not really!
But the kids at momstown milton did a few "rainy" crafts to encourage a rainy April so that we could have those beautiful May flowers!


We made the classic umbrellas with glitter, pom poms and pipe cleaners!





And we used cupcake holders and bingo dabbers to make a rainy picture!






We closed our morning circle time with the story of the Itsy Bitsy Spider and some fun dancing to "Singing in the Rain"!

A little Easter Egg Fun!

momstown milton hosted their very own Easter Egg Hunt at Rotary Park on March 31st! We could not have asked for a more beautiful day!

The kids donned their rabbit ears and hippety-hopped out to collect their eggs!
After the hunt, we all settled in to eat a bit of candy and playtime at the park!
