SUMMARY:Be My Baby: Valentine Date Night
DESCRIPTION:A Valentine’s Day party for exhausted grown-ups and their babies\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s hard to have a romantic Valentine’s evening when you’re the caregivers to a baby. Getting a babysitter can be a nightmare\, and if you try to go out with them it’s hard to relax knowing that you’re one leaking diaper away from needing to grab the check and run. \n\n\n\nInstead\, bring your baby to the children’s museum for the most adorable party in town\, where everyone is just as sleep-deprived as you are. Enjoy a signature mocktail\, social time for adults\, a baby balloon dance party\, a footprint keepsake craft\, and more! \n\n\n\nBring your significant other or come with just you and your cherub (ages 0-3). Sorry\, no older kids allowed this time; the babies are taking over the museum.  \n\n\n\nRegistration is free for babies and $10 for adults. (MCM members get 10% off.) This event may sell out so we recommend you get your tickets in advance. \n\n\n\n\nRegister Now
