Play group From Corrin A.
I recently moved to Holland with my husband, and our 4 month old son. I would love to meet some families in the area.
replyHolland area Newcomers mom and tot group From Corrin A.
Lyndsey this is the group I was telling you a little bit about, I didn't get the chance to tell you about it Rose. The Holland Area Newcomers is a group where you have to pay $20 a year ( i think thats what the price is) but they do 4 activities a month. I haven't had a chance to go to one of the meeting yet, but I thought I would pass the next one along to you guys to see if you wanted to go with me :-)

activity is free and open to everyone. Let's get our
kids together and enjoy one of these Barnes and Noble
mornings. Meet in the back of the store where the
children’s books are.
Hopefully you guys will be able to come :-)
New From Sunrise B.
Hello, I'm Sunrise. Now that I'm not working so far away (Kentwood) I'm looking for local moms to connect with. We live in Hamilton but I'm in Holland often. I have three kids ages 2(girl), 9(girl) & 10 (boy). Obviously daytime activities will only be me and the toddler.
replySoon to be Holland Residents From Ari H.
Hi there. I just found this site and was looking around for some possible play day companions for my 2 year old son. We are relocating to Holland this December and I would really like to get my son acclimated to other children. Thus far he has typically spent most of his time with my fiance and I. His family has no children our sons age and my family is in California and Hawai'i (I'm from California) so he's mostly around us two, his mommy and daddy. He is interested in other children, but opportunities have yet to arise for him to have more long term interaction. I am hoping this group is still active.
My name is Ari. My fiances name is Sean and our sons name is River. I'd appreciate any tips on local activities for toddlers too! Thank you for your time and it would be fabulous if this group had any upcoming play date activities. :)
I'm Corrin, My husband's name is Jon, and our son's name is Parker.
Ari do you know when in December you'll be in Holland? I look forward to meeting you both in the near future :-)
Now that we have a good sized group I'll try to work on making some events for people to attend on here!!
Local (free or cheap) Activities From Sunrise B.
As I'm searching for local activities for me & my toddler I thought I would create a post so others can leave feedback on activities (IE... skip this it was mad chaos or this was fabulous) or please add to the list if you know of something I have yet to find! I am posting stuff for preschoolers because some people may have kids just a bit older than toddlers.
