Let’s Hop Around Houston! {Summer 2018 Play Date Series}

Houston Moms Blog is absolutely thrilled to present our Hop Around Houston Summer Play Date Series! {Join our events group here!} Beginning the week of June 18th and coming to a close the week of August 5th, we will host a new and unique play date at regular intervals throughout the summer. From cooking to trampoline jumping to music and more, we will have something for every age and will hit all parts of this great city throughout the series, too. I don’t know about you, but while I eagerly anticipate lazy summer days after the rigors of the school year, by week two I am on the hunt for fun, different, and inexpensive activities for my kiddos. Thus, we have worked tirelessly to accomplish all of that just for YOU! And by inexpensive, we mean it — tickets for each play date are just $5 per person. Yes, $5 and that includes all of the fun below!

So how do you get your hands on these amazing tickets?  Great question!  Each week, we will be highlighting a particular play date and a form to purchase your ticket will be embedded in that post.  As a fair heads up though, tickets will be available in INCREDIBLY limited amounts, so be sure to jump just as soon as they go live.  {Hint :: We have denoted below exactly when tickets will go on sale for each event, so write it on your calendar, tell all of your friends, and stay tuned to the Facebook event group for updates and alerts as those ticket releases near!}

Before I dive into all of the fantastic activities we have planned for you, I have to give a HUGE shout out to our incredibly generous title sponsor, Next Level Urgent Care! With 13 locations all over our city, Next Level Urgent Care provides quality, affordable, and compassionate urgent care, 7 days a week with many clinics opening at 7am and closing at 9pm.  I feel such comfort in knowing we have such a trustworthy place to take our families where they treat everything from sinus infections and allergic reactions to broken bones. Another amazing feature I LOVE is being able to reserve your spot in line via their app — hello, timesaver! They truly are taking care of our Houston mamas AND their kiddos. Thank you, Next Level!


Okay, so who’s ready to Hop Around Houston with me? Without further adieu, check out our entire list of fun-filled play dates below and save the dates! We can’t wait to see you and make Summer 2018 the most memorable yet!
