The Mamas & Chicks Show

On Friday, October 22nd, momstown Whitby-Ajax teamed up with momstown Oshawa-Port Perry to be part of The Mamas & Chicks Show!

As sponsors of the show we were very excited, and arrived to the show very early to get our table all set up for big day! Throughout the day we had the chance to meet many new moms and moms-to-be and tell them about all the wonderful things momstown can bring them! It was great to meet so many new faces, as well as see some familiar ones too!

Thanks to everyone who came out to The Mamas & Chicks Show and had the chance to stop by our booth! If you didn't make it out, its never to late to head on over to our site and experience all that momstown has to offer.

Tots & Tales

Today momstown Whitby-Ajax had our "Tots & Tales" group, with the focus on being spiders and bats! We had planned to start off with our circle time in the park, reading "Happy Halloween Curious George!", however the tots seemed to be more interested in the park equipment.


After the tots burned off steam on the park equipment, they all crowded around the park bench to look through the spooky Halloween books together. They really enjoyed the pictures each book had to offer.

Great book club get together! We're looking forward to next months Tots & Tales, where we'll be reading some fun stories around the theme of "My house, Your House".

Launch Party Success!

On Wednesday, momstown Whitby-Ajax and momstown Oshawa-Port Perry celebrated their launches together in the centre court of Oshawa Centre! And - what better way to do it, then by having a huge party!!

We had a massive turn out. We had set out an area for stroller parking, but it quickly became full and people had to start parking their strollers in the hallway. Nothing was stopping the parents and kids from coming in, and joining in on the fun!

Nancy (mama of momstown Oshawa-Port Perry) and I (mama of momstown Whitby-Ajax) came very quickly to realize that the momstown movement was being felt and accepted in the Durham Region.




We set up lots of different little activity stations for the kids. The tables contained arts & crafts; we taped a massive piece of paper to the floor for the kids to color all over. That was a huge hit!! Most ran straight into the activity station, ripped off their shoes and went to town coloring. The activity centers also offered a reading station, bead maze station and blocks/puzzles station. There was something for everyone!















Belly Button the Clown joined us in celebration of our launch, and brought lots of smiles to the children. She offered face painting and blew up balloon creatures for the youngsters.
Keri-Ellen Walcer from MusiGo put on a performance that got the kids all moving and dancing!



All in all, we had an amazing day! It was so great to have had the opportunity to meet and connect with so many families!

If you missed the launch party, don't worry! You can still sign-up for a free trial and get in on the fun by visiting momstown Whitby-Ajax!

Thanks to everyone who came out and contributed into making it a great day!
