Mom & Tot Morning at Boston Pizza Ajax

Yesterday morning, we met up with some of our members and their children for a fun morning at Boston Pizza Ajax. The weather was quite gloomy and the roads were quite slick, so not everyone who planned to join us were able to make it... But those who could were glad they came out. 

Boston Pizza was kind enough to open their doors to our group an hour early so that the children could take part in a craft  before eating lunch. Our momstown curriculum this month was themed as 'My House, Your House'.

The children enjoyed putting their imaginations to use to creatively build their own houses. 

At 11 we had a few other Moms with infants come out to join us for lunch to take advantage of our member exclusive momstown Whitby-Ajax discount of 10% off. Just another perk to being a momstown Whitby-Ajax member! It was nice to enjoy some chatter and food with the other Moms and tots. The children were all very quick to make friends.

The Moms and tots all had such a fun time yesterday morning! We can't wait to do it all again, and we're already in the midst of planning our next exciting visit to Boston Pizza Ajax!

Ajax Santa Claus Parade

Last weekend, momstown Whitby-Ajax members headed down to our local Ajax Santa Claus Parade for a night of fun with our families. We were sure to get there very early to locate a good spot, and were also sure to have coffees in hand to keep us warm and toasty.

The parade started at 6, but the floats didn't make it to our location until about 6:30. The kids were getting antsy by the time they neared, but as soon as they were insight they quickly settled and were in totally awe as they awaited the arrival of Jolly 'Ol Santa Nick!

The floats were all lit up, and the costumes were phenomenal. The biggest hit of the night next to Santa was when the children saw Lionel from Boston Pizza Ajax. (Boston Pizza Ajax also happens to be a partner of ours. If you are a member of momstown Whitby-Ajax be sure to check out the calendar/member discounts for some awesome perks!!)

We knew that Santa was on his way the moment that the reindeer started to walk by with their elves. The children were so full of excitement to see Santa!

We had such an amazing evening with our families! We can't wait to get together again to watch the Whitby Santa Claus Parade in just a few weeks time!

Monthly Meet & Greet at Creative Play!

Wow! We had such an amazing time yesterday morning at our Meet 'n Greet at Creative Play. It was so much fun for both the Moms and kids alike. All the Moms had the chance to mingle, chat and enjoy their coffees; all whilst the little ones ran and played.

There was so much to do at Creative Play. It was sure not to be a bore to anyone. They had everything from cars, train tracks, and a "roller coaster" for the children to ride on. All of which had the kids lining up for their turn.


There was also a large play structure, hockey and ball play area, an imagination station, jumping castle, large indoor playground structure with slides and an infant play area. There was something there for children of all ages!


The event was scheduled to run from 10AM to 11:30AM, but the kids were having too much fun to leave. Thankfully the party room was free, so the kids got to snack and enjoy their lunches in there with Mom and continue with play again. How could you want to leave a fun play place, like this?!

If you didn't have a chance to make it out to the Meet 'n Greet this month, don't worry... we will be doing it all again next month on December 10th. That's right... momstown Whitby-Ajax and Creative Play have formed a partnership which will surely have some great perks for momstown members! To RSVP for our next event, visit our event calendar.

We've been FEATURED: SNAP Oshawa - Momstown Launch Party

momstown Whitby-Ajax and momstown Oshawa-Port Perry collectively teamed up to celebrate our grand opening launches in the Centre Court of Oshawa Centre back in September.

We invited out SNAP Oshawa to cover the event, and we recently found out that we were featured in their November issue. Here's a short blurb of what SNAP Oshawa had to say:

"Moms and children enjoyed a live performance by Keri-Ellen from MusiGo (as seen on Treehouse TV) face painting and balloon animals from Bellybutton the Clown. There were also activities for the children such as colouring and Lego toys along with contests and giveaways." (SNAP Oshawa)

Nanny Robina: Toddler Shenanigans

Last Friday evening, momstown Whitby-Ajax was invited out to Creative Play Indoor Playground for a 2-hour Toddler Shenanigans seminar hosted by the ultimate Nanny, Nanny Robina.

For those who are unfamiliar with Nanny Robina, she has been a Nanny for over 30 years and is well-known as the resident Nanny on the Slice Networks TV show 'The Mom Show' and for her role on CityTV's 'Cityline'.

We had such great fun learning the in's and out's of toddler shenanigans with Nanny Robina everything from Temper Tantrums, Bottle to Sippy Cup, Dropping the Soother, Potty Training, etc. was covered. We shared many great laughs as we heard some of the funny stories surrounding the Nanny's experiences over the years. It's safe to say all the momstown Moms walked away with a vast full of knowledge that we couldn't wait to put into motion.

We can't wait to team up again with the Nanny again in the future for another great seminar!

Boo Bash

On Friday, October 29th momstown Whitby-Ajax celebrated Halloween early with our annual Boo Bash!

A lot of Moms came out with their little goulish tots all in character. There were some pretty amazing costumes amongst the group!

The tots all enjoyed playing with the toys and creating styrofoam creepy, crazy spiders.


The spiders were made using pre-painted styrofoam balls, pipe cleaner and sticker googly eyes. The tots went crazy making the spiders, and were very proud to show off their masterpieces.



While the older kids played, the Moms chatted and nibbled on some snacks. It was surely great company!


Thanks to everyone who came out to the Boo Bash, and helped in making the day a success that it truly was! We look forward to seeing you all around the 'neighbourhood' again soon!
