Ideas for a Moms' Club
Drop the kids off at school and relax with a coffee and a chat about the little ones. Moms clubs are a great way for mothers to meet and swap child-care tips. They are also an opportunity for mothers to expand their social circles and let their hair down for a couple of hours a day while the kids are away. Activities can be shaped to suit club members. Anything from a relaxed book club meeting to jogs in the park or fashion design sessions make suitable meet-up options.

Coffee Morning
-
A popular moms club activity is a weekly coffee morning, ideally during the day when the kids are at school. This is a time for moms to discuss their "mini me" offspring or simply take a step back from motherly duties and make new friends. Meet at a cafe or alternate get-togethers at members' houses.
Book Club
-
A book club is a great way for moms to bond over their shared literary interests. What's more, it's an activity that everyone can participate in. Meetings can be held once a month to give busy moms enough time to get their reading done, and books can be discussed at leisure over a cup of tea and cake.

Picnic in the Park
-
Organize a regular family day during the summer months. Pack some sandwiches, set up a barbecue and relax in the sunshine with other moms as the kids enjoy a game of soccer. A park provides a safe environment and is ideal for large groups.
Get Fit
-
A weekly fitness meet-up is a great way for new mothers to shift that baby weight and not-so-new moms to work off those few extra pounds. Sessions can alternate between runs in the park to fun games of softball or Frisbee. Alternate sports will give the club a fresh vibe and ensure that everyone can participate with an activity of their choice.
Get Crafty
-
Moms with a love of arts and crafts can meet to create magic and swap skills. Ideas can include everything from birthday cards, holiday decorations, baby clothes and jewelry design. Get the kids involved for a day of family fun.
