August's Playgroup

Who's ready for August's playgroup!? :)

Grab your kids, some sunscreen, lunch if you want, and come play with us!
Wednesday, Aug 9th from 11:00 pm - 1:00 ish pm
(*See the group's Facebook page for more details and the location!)

Also, as usual we have the time from 11:00-1:00ish but just come when you can work it around nap times and etc! -We all end up staying longer anyway so we'll overlap and still get to visit! :)

Some changes for the mamas' privacy...

Hey Mamas!

Just a heads up, but many of you have noticed the privacy setting for our Facebook group page has been changed from "closed" group to "secret" group and many have been asking me about it. Without going into details, its just a temporary thing while we figure some stuff out for some of our mamas in need, and its an attempt to help keep their info private. 

We will still be posting info about our activities, but details such as location will no longer be mentioned on this blog. To find out more info needed to come to these events you will now need to request to join the group's page on facebook, or contact us through our email (seen in the contact tab on the menu bar). However, note that for the time being though, (while we check some things out), requests to join may be delayed on being approved. So if you want to join, or if you have a mama you want to invite to the group or know someone who wants to join will you please just message us and let us know and then we'll talk with you and work on adding them A.S.A.P?!

Thanks for understanding mamas, and sorry for the inconvenience! ;)

July's Mama Activity: Babywearing 101

For this month's Mama Activity we are having our first babywearing class!
Wednesday, July 25th from 7:00 pm - 8:30 ish pm
(*See the group's facebook page for the location and for more details!)

This class will be more of a "Babywearing 101," and the first in a series of babywearing classes that the lovely Mayme Seng Ercanbrack will teach us!

This class will be the perfect intro to babywearing, and we'll talk about benefits of babywearing, the principles behind correct positioning, what makes a good carrier, the different kinds of carriers and we will take a look at them all.

To Bring: (ALL are optional!)
* As for all the “Mama Activity” nights, bringing your kids is optional. (I’m personally probably going to pawn mine off on daddy this time, but I’ll have the location be somewhere where kids can have somewhere to play too for anyone who needs it. ;) )
* Any friends you think may also be interested!
* A treat to share if you want/can! (I’ll bring drinks and plates.)
* Those mamas with their own carriers and wraps can feel free to bring their own carriers too, and if we have time after the class you can try eachothers' carriers out and get help with any other babywearing questions you might have. -In the next babywearing classes we have we will learn more specific carries and practice them more in depth though. :)

___________________________________________________

**Note: For this particular class we are going to have a sort of "part 2/DIY class" on the following Saturday as well. For this one, Megan Lindstrom will be teaching how to make your own of several different kinds of carriers for those interested. She will talk a little about this at our class, as well as more details will be available in the event invite for that day!

July's Playgroup: Meetup at the park!

Alright mamas! Its about time for our July playgroup! :)

This is just a general playgroup at the park, so grab your kids, swimsuits (where applicable), sunscreen, lunch if you want, and come play at the park with all of our awesome Cache Valley Crunchy Mamas!

Wednesday, July 11th from 11:00 am - 1:00 ish pm ...please see the group's facebook page for the location and for more details!

**Note: Although the time is written as 11:00 to 1:00 ish... keep in mind that its a "come and go as you can" kind of thing and that last time we had some chatty mamas stay until like 3:00 or 4:00!! So PLEASE still come even if you think you're going to be "late"! ;)

June's Mama Activity: Cloth Diaper Class!

For this month's Mama Activity we're doing a … *insert drum roll please!*

CLOTH DIAPER CLASS!
Fun eh?! ;)


***Note: Please note that we normally have our Mama Activities listed to be at 7:00 pm in the info sections of the blog and FB group page, but this one is going to be at 5:00 instead -so dont miss it!! ;) ...Also, the location is currently tentative as depending on how many mamas (& Kids) come we'll maybe change it to a park or something. ***

First we'll have a little class about cloth diapers (taught by the awesome Deann Hadley <--Thank you mama!), and then afterwards we'll have an area set up where you can buy/sell/trade used cloth diapers (-which may sound weird to any cloth diapering newbies, but its a ‘big thing’ in the cloth diapering world! ;) lol).
We’ll have some other cloth diapers there so that interested mamas can touch and check out some of our local mamas’ favorites in person, as well as have some giveaways going on for some new cloth diaper stuff and other fun things!

To Bring: (ALL are optional!)

* As for all the “Mama Activity” nights, bringing your kids is optional. (I’m personally probably going to pawn mine off on daddy this time, but I’ll have the location be somewhere where kids can have somewhere to play too for anyone who needs it. ;) )
* Any friends you think may also be interested!
* A treat to share if you want/can! (I’ll bring drinks and plates.)
* Some of your personal favorite cloth diapers to let other mamas touch and check out.
* Any used cloth diapers you’re interested in trading/selling, any related items that you make yourself and want to sell and show off .... and of course any money that you may need if you want to purchase some of these items from others!

June's Playgroup

Alright mamas! Its about time for our second playgroup! :) This upcoming Weds (the 13th) from 11:00-1:00pm. Grab your kids, swimsuits, sunscreen, lunch if you want, and come hit up the Providence Splash pad with us! (Alma Leonhardt Park, 310 West 250 North)

Spread the word and lets get more mamas this time!!! :)

*Note: Just FYI, it is free, and there is a regular playground there too and a big covered pavilion as well with picnic tables and restrooms if you need.

--Details for our Mama Activity this month are in the works and will be up soon too! ;) --

CVCM's First Meetup!

Our first Cache Valley Crunchy Mama's meet up will be a playgroup this Wednesday (May 23rd) at 11:00 am -1:00 pm, at the park at the Whittier Center (290 North 400 East, Logan, UT). 
Bring the kids, sunscreen, some lunch if you wish and come meet everyone!


We will also be having a meetup the following Wednesday in the evening (to take place for those mamas who cant make the first or who are only able to make the Mama Activity times/days) and we will post more details for that here shortly! ...Then in June we will pick up with the regularly planned schedule (see the meetups tab for more info on that).


We're excited to meet you all! :)
