Happy Monday! I don’t know about you, but I need a weekend from my weekend. With school in full swing, I’ve been trying to let my daughters unwind on the weekends, meaning, spending time with family, lots of reading and hanging out. But downtimes comes with some, um, bickering so to speak, and all of a sudden I’m looking for ways to get OUT of the house. Since it’s still blazing hot here, if you’re not in the pool you’re out of luck. So, I’ve been searching for an alternative way to spend an afternoon out without having to trek to a museum we’ve been to many, many, many times.

Enter Baby Loves Disco, THE dance party for kids ages six months through seven years, their friends, parents, family, anyone who wants to come to party and let loose. Baby Loves Disco is set up in hip clubs usually reserved for big people, but it’s totally kid friendly - they outfit the club with bubble machines, a “chill out” room, healthy snacks and diaper changing stations. While a real DJ spins real music (NO BARNEY OR WIGGLES ALLOWED), your kids get some great exercise while you get to share in the fun. And who doesn’t love shake their booty on a Saturday afternoon?!

I was beyond thrilled to find out that BLD finally started up near me, in Fort Lauderdale. Check out their Locations section to see if BLD is coming to a city near you, and to buy tickets. They also feature great independent companies, environmental causes and local businesses on their site, so click around before you come out, jump up and get down!
