Boston Family Fun Kids Activities Are Frequently Sold Out: Baby Loves Disco Rocks

Kids Clubbing
The Washington Post described a Baby Loves Disco event as a play date with beer that mixes "Bud Light and ba-bas, sequined halter tops and Huggies". If you or someone you know has a toddler and thought your clubbing days are over, Baby Loves Disco offers a variety of kids activities and fun for the whole family coming soon to Revolution Rock Bar in Boston. Next available event scheduled is June 29, 2008 from 2-5 pm.

Baby Loves Disco Does Boston
So what goes down at one of these events? "This isn't your parents' dance party - it's a dance party for parents" reports Megan McKee of Boston's Patriot Ledger who last covered one of the frequently sold-out Baby Loves Disco events earlier this year where over 350 people attended. Her article "Baby steps - and rocks: Parents and toddlers can dance away a Sunday afternoon to real music at Baby Loves Disco" sets the tone of what to expect "There's a line behind the club's velvet rope and people are anxiously awaiting entry from a clipboard-toting door person. But something is different about this nightclub. It's light out. And half the people are less than 3 feet tall."

Afternoon Dance Party
Baby Loves Disco transforms some of the hippest night clubs across the country including the Revolution Rock Bar in Boston into child proof discos allowing family fun kids activities with the mash-up of a fun, social event that adults can enjoy too. For the past few years, Baby Loves Disco has been organizing parties across the U.S. spinning classic disco tunes from the 70s and dance hits from the 80s to get people of all ages grooving.

Boston Family Fun Kids Activities
"The fun spills out from all corners of the club: bubble machines, baskets of scarves and egg-shakers, a chill-out room with tents, books and puzzles, diaper changing stations, a full spread of healthy snacks and dancing, LOTS of dancing." Adds Baby Loves Disco co-partner and father Andy Hurwitz, "It's more than just something to do for the kids, Baby Loves Disco is fun for parents, we get the chance to mingle with other parents, dance with our kids and have an afternoon cocktail to boot."

How Safe Is Baby Loves Disco For Kids?
At the heart of the operation is professional dancer and mom Heather Murphy Monteith & father and music guy Andy Hurwitz so it's an event created by parents for parents to enjoy family fun kids activities. Says Murphy, "We're parents, we're always looking for something new and different to do with the kids" and Baby Loves Disco goes out of its way to ensure venues chosen are safe and clean and kid-proofs clubs with safety items like outlet covers. Baby Loves Disco tries to keep the music volume down to a safe 80 decibels and whenever possible, the food table has nutritious, organic food choices.

Moms Just Want to Have Fun
Monteith describes Baby Loves Disco as an urban experiment and chronicles how the idea came about on a blog post on Fertile Ground. Baby chic meets Mommy cool foregoing complacency into a dull lifestyle. There is clearly a sense of humor about the whole thing and it is exuded in the fun website and hip rock 'n roll posters customized for each event. Included among the FAQs "Question - What if my husband is afraid to dance in public? Answer - There will be plenty of little kids that will think he's the best dancer in the world."

Everyone else is welcome to attend older sisters, brothers, aunts, uncles, parents, grand parents. Tickets all cost the same price.
