Getting on the Floor

One of my favorites in Mommy Mundo's roster of events is MOMS ON THE FLOOR. I conceptualized this event because I myself love getting down on the floor with my kids. I noticed that when you get down on the floor, on the playmat, on the grass, lie down with them to read or cuddle, it is a different kind of bonding that happens.The concept evolved from a mom and kid event to also having "on the floor" moments for expectant couples and new parents of babies 0-1 year old. Here are photos from the last MOTF event:Teachers Maco Custodio and Gabby Roa Limjoco of Toddlers Teacher school lead the first portion which was for moms of babies.Teacher Gabby with the kidsMOTF is made with moments like these. Mom and baby bonding--It was a morning of JUST BEING togetherThen Rome starts teaching infant massagewith this cute little girl seemingly wanting to be Rome's assistantIn the portion after lunch for expectant parents, Rome teaches relaxation techniquesWhat's great about attending classes like this together with your husband or birth partner is that they are able to help soothe their pregnant partners and help them relaxThere is also a portion on prenatal yoga facilitated by Urban AshramI looooved this couple and their little girl who made played in the Kids play area and made crowns for her mama and papa.King daddy and queen mamaThere were also informative portions like this one by pediatrician Dr. Anna who spoke about protecting our children through proper vaccination.Natasha of Cycles also talked about skin care for babiesand Rochelle of ImagineNation shared tips on newborn photographyThe last portion was made just for kids!
