Mommy and Me Classes on Saturdays

11/15/08 - By Anna Fader

[UPDATED: July 14, 2012]

They say that when you have kids everything changes. By everything, I think they predominantly mean Saturdays. Remember when your Saturdays could include marathon sessions of, well, pretty much whatever you like to do. Now Saturdays can just feel like marathons of...marathons. Sometimes structured weekend activities help make Saturdays run smoother.

Mommy Poppins reader, Josie from Riverdale, asked if I knew of any Mommy and Me programs that offer Saturday classes and I thought I'd share some here with all of you. I mostly picked places that have multiple locations so that you can find a location near home. Click on the links to visit each site and find the most convenient locations.

Though there are no Saturday classes scheduled currently, it's worth checking back for Creative Play's music and movement classes for babies and toddlers. At their Upper West Side location they have Mommy and Me drop-in classes during the week.  Perfect for the last minute planner.

Don't forget, just cause they call them Mommy and Me classes doesn't mean Daddy can't go and let Mommy have a marathon sleep session.
