Liza Wilson, the owner of Toybrary Austin, and Jessica Glorieux, the local mama behind Pregnant in Austin, are throwing a Big Baby Bash and Toddler Jam this weekend. This promises to be unlike any other kids’ event — and 50 Free Fun in Austin readers will win a free ticket (good for two adults) to the event for the day of their choice! (Each ticket is a $15 value and includes entry into the exhibit hall, all demos and speakers, and the babywearing and cloth-diapering demo lounge, as well as two raffle tickets. Scroll down for the giveaway entry form.)
This two-day event is for all expectant, new and experienced parents with little ones up to age five. Each day of the event, April 11 and 12, 2015, will be filled with informative demos and talks, giveaways, food, drinks and fun. With over 100 of the best local and national companies in the baby/toddler industry, the Big Baby Bash will be a one-stop shop to check out, test out, and try out everything you could possibly need for your growing family.
Where and When:
The event will take place Saturday, April 11, and Sunday, April 12, at Toybrary Austin and the neighboring Ben Hur Shrine Temple (7811 and 7817 Rockwood Ln.), from 10 AM – 2 PM both days.
Schedule:
Saturday, 4/11: Expectant parents can test-drive the best baby products on the market, shop, attend workshops, meet other parents and win amazing raffle prizes.
Sunday, 4/12: Parents with young children and families can play together, attend seminars, shop, learn about schools, and win amazing raffle prizes.
On both days: Parents are encouraged to relax, nibble on delicious goodies, and sip a mocktail while learning and shopping!
