Club Activites
Child-Friendly Activities
Park Play - We schedule many park days where the kids can run, play, and enjoy snacks, giving moms a chance to talk and enjoy some time outside. These are scheduled both in the morning and in the afternoon (after school) to accommodate all schedules.
Age-Specific Play Groups - Playdates designed specifically for different age groups such as Bouncing Babies and Tiny Tots.
Field Trips - We enjoy monthly outings to local places for little to no cost to our families, where kids get to participate on many levels in the activities. Examples include trips to the farms, the zoo, farmer's market, fire and police stations, and many more.
Parties & Holiday Celebrations - Together we celebrate all the major holidays like Valentine's Day, Easter, and Halloween, as well as the minor ones like National Pizza Day and Dr. Seuss Day.
Lunch Bunch - A monthly trip to eat lunch at a restaurant is fun for everyone and great practice for the kiddos at life skills.
Monthly Business Meeting - Our business meetings are open to all members and potential members. Here you can find out about current happenings in the club, plan and vote on events and projects, chat with other moms, and discuss club issues. Children are always welcome for an informal playgroup.
Service & Community Projects - We perform at least one community service project per year. These service projects benefit mothers and/or children in or around our community. Examples of past service projects include collecting and donating toys for children for Christmas, A back-to-school supplies drive, tAKING TREATS TO ANIMAL SHELTER AND NURSING HOMES AND TAKING LUNCH TO FIREFIGHTERS.
MOMS ONLY Activities
MOMS Club Of Lawrenceburg offers a variety of activities for you to enjoy, occasionally without the kids.
Moms' Night Out - Moms just need to get out every once in a while and enjoy the friendships that we are creating. Join us for our monthly evening outings where we get to hang out, relax, and not have to chase after little ones.
History of the MOMS Club®
In 1983 Mary James, an at-home mother in California, decided she was tired of being alone at home. She wanted to meet other at-home moms and she wanted to find playmates for her children. When she discovered there were no other organizations that met during the day and allowed her to come with her baby and her preschooler, she decided to start a brand new organization. The MOMS Club® was born!
The chapter she formed was so successful, she knew mothers in other areas must be needing the MOMS Club® too. Soon, she and other volunteers were helping mothers start MOMS Clubs® across the country and around the world! We now have 2000+ chapters in the US alone and over 100,000 members! We also have international chapters forming too!
