It’s also a chance for those of you who may not have experienced Mommy Connections to come and see what we’re all about! There will be toy testing, giveaways and some freebies too!

 

This FREE event is open to everyone, so bring a friend or two along! Kids of all ages are welcome, including those still in bellies. 😉

 

The only catch is that you – and your guests – need to RSVP.   Please select the appropriate number of adults and children and click “add to cart”.
