Are you ready to WIGGLE?

Diaper Disco is so thrilled to partner with MusiGo Kids. You'll all be able to meet the founder Keri-Ellen Walcer as she leads everyone to boogie down at our Valentine's Day Dance.

With the rising rates of childhood (and adult!) obesity we love their Wee Wigglers programs which are designed to "help strengthen family relationships, increase activity levels, aid in the development of cognitive and life skills, and encourage self-confidence through music and physical activity education".

Did you know that MusiGo Kids has joined forces with the show "Roll Play" on TV's Treehouse? There are plenty of Wee Wigglers programs in all sorts of neighbourhoods in British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario. (And they're always looking for new instructors).

Leslie from Diaper Disco (that's me!) and Keri-Ellen will on Rogers (Durham) 'Local Midday Live' next week. We're hoping to post a video of our segment on the Diaper Disco site, so be sure to stay tuned!

See you at the Disco!
P.S. Don't be shy....send us your song requests in advance and we'll do our best to play them.

Will you be our 2009 Valentine?

Hey kids, the next Diaper Disco is scheduled for Sat. February 14 at a new time: 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

We bumped the time up by an hour to hopefully accommodate those who schedule naps around 1:00.

We've partnered with MusigoKids who will be providing the entertainment. We'll be sure to get ALL the kids up on the dancefloor to shake their booties!

Unfortunately, as some of you know, we were disappointed with the DJ from the first event. We'll be scrutinizing the play list and would LOVE to receive requests in advance and do our best to play them at the event.

Yes, the wonderful Face Painter Janet Lange will be back with assistants this time! And we'll have our Candy Bar open for treats.

Johnny B Club have promised a kid-friendly menu as well as fun kiddie Mock-tails. We'll hopefully be able to upload this to the site soon.

We had a wonderful turn out for the event in September, and expect an even bigger response, so get your tickets soon!

Online tickets are available now (simply print out the PayPal receipt and bring it with ID to the event) and we'll be providing Once Upon A Child, Ajax with tickets by next Wednesday at the latest.

We look forward to seeing you at the Disco!!

iPhone app for Baby Monitor

What will they think of next? An application for your iPhone that replaces a Baby Monitor?!

We haven't tried this out yet. Presumably your iPhone recognizes sound and when the baby wakes up, the iPhone calls the land line.
