Isaac and I are lucky enough to be part of two wonderful mothers groups. We look forward to catching up with the other mums and babies and sharing how we are going. Thankfully, both groups are very open and honest and there has been an absence of competitive parenting.
Instead, we talk about how we are managing sleep and feeding issues as well as just general new-mum talk. We have also been talking about what we are going to do in the coming weeks. I thought I’d post our list of ideas:
- Babes in Arms – BCC cinemas host babe in arms movie session for $8.50 where bubs are welcome.
- Story Time and Ryhme Time – City Council libraries host story times and rhyme times for babies – check out Whats On at your library – http://www.brisbane.qld.gov.au/BCC:BASE::pc=PC_2361
- Picnics in a park
- Photo Session – a chance to get some nice photos of you and Bub instead of you always being behind the camera!
- Footprint & Handprint art – get some canvasses and get creative and messy with creating works of art with your babies. You can get very small canvasses that will accommodate a baby foot print or handprint – you can pop some magnetic material on the back and it makes a lovely fridge magnet that can be posted to family and friends. I am hoping our group will get some very large canvasses so that we can put all our babies footprints and hand prints on it.
- Favourite Stories – share your own favourite books with the other babies and mums
- Baby Yoga
- Baby Massage
- Go out without the kids and get to know each other in a more grown up environment such as dinner or (can I say it?) clubbing!
- BBQ with the hubbies/partners & bubs
- Grandmothers morning tea - where everyone brings along their mother/mother in law
I am sure that our list of activities will grow but this will be a fabulous start!
