Pamper Playdate!

I hope everyone enjoyed their mother’s day. However, the pampering doesn’t have to stop here. Being showered with love from your family and friends is the best part of mother’s day. But let’s admit, the pampering makes a mom feel that much more special. Why not plan a special playdate, where both you and your little ones can feel like royalty. Enjoy a playdate filled with facials, mini massages, healthy snacks, fun stories, and arts and crafts. The good thing about a pamper playdate, is that you can be as creative as you like. Moms I would strongly suggest having extra people attending the playdate with the sole purpose of helping. If you want the full pampering experience, you are more than welcome to hire people who specialize in pamper parties and playdates. Here are a few ideas to help you plan your pamper playdate.

Homemade organic facials:
Facials are exciting! It’s healthy for the skin, and a cool snack for kids to wear on their face. I wouldn’t suggest allowing your little ones to wear it longer than ten minutes. Here are a few recipes:

Berry Smoothie Facial: Ingredients: 1/2 cup plain yogurt, 1/2 cup blueberries, 1 teaspoon honey, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/3 teaspoon almond extract

Banana Bread Facial Mask: Ingredients: 1 ripe banana, 2 tablespoon oats, 1/2 tablespoon orange juice, 1 tablespoon almond milk, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, 2 tablespoon whole wheat flour
 

Fruity Facial: Ingredients: 1/2 papaya (peeled, sliced, no seeds, chilled), 1/2 cups diced pineapple(chilled), 1/2 cup green tea (cooled), 1/4 cup honey

Mini massages:

Moms here is the perfect time for you and your little ones to relax. According to huggies.com, “Experts say that massaged infants are more active and gain weight faster. In addition, massage releases muscular tension created by motor skills acquisition, may calm anxious babies and relieve symptoms of colic, contributes to brain and motor development and supports learning appropriate posture and movement patterns”.

Healthy snacks:
It’s not a playdate without snacks!

 Activities:
Set up several stations with different activities around the room. Feel free to create your own activities. Here's a list of Lilly bears favorite activities:
