i was wondering if anyone new of a fun place for a mom to take a one year old to meet other moms have activites to do with your child. in the spanaway tacoma area? thankyou
there is a SAHM club in your area. I am a member and love it. they have an area on here under mom's club with info on how to join.
have you tried meetup.com? there are a couple of tacoma groups you could try out. they meet all over.
i don't know that area, so that's all i've got for a suggestion. good luck!
Three of my closest girlfriends all joined the YMCA on South hill. So far all of them love it. Their kids range from 9 months to 9 years. The boys do Karate with their moms! The 5 yo girl does gymnastics (didn't like standing in the cold for the learn to swim class) and the 9 month old goes in his stroller around an indoor track(so I hear)They say the daycare part is only $2/ hour if you're interested but no one I know uses it.
I haven't joined yet because I play sports but I'm thinking strongly about it. Please let me know what you chose.
The YMCA Morgan Branch on Pearl St, Tacoma is a great place to take your little one! It offers different times in the mornings (Mon/Wed or Tues/Thurs) for toddler gym, which is just a huge gym with all sorts of stuff, ie. slides, balance beams, bars, trampolines, teeter totters, balls, etc. So fun! www.tacomaymca.org
And the childrens museum in downtown Tacoma has some fun programs on Tues and Wed mornings at 9:30 am for 1 hour and then of course free time afterward. Songs, art, circle time.

Both great choices!!
I have recently started "gymnastic" and swimming with my daughter at the YMCA. There are lots of other Moms, but they seem a little "clique-y" so, we'll see. let me know if you ahve gotten any other ideas :-)
There is a "Little Gym" in Puyallup by the mall. They offer parent-child classes that kids really seem to love. Also, the YMCA has many choices to choose from. I suppose it depends on how much you want to spend. You can check them both out online at www.thelittlegym.com and www.tacomaymca.org. I have been to both. They YMCA is cheaper and you can join as many classes as you want under that same fee. Good Luck!
