Baby Disco

A mother I spoke to at my daughter's playgroup told me about a children's disco in aid of Red Cross for Sichuan. Does anyone have more details?

I just looked on the website, but because I've never heard of this before, I'm still a bit unsure as to what this is all about. So do the kids get dressed up and go dancing? And up to what age is it for? And the parents dance too?

I would have loved to check it out on June 8, but it's dragonboat race day, so need to go support hubby while he's rowing! Maybe next time!

Am planning on going with D. Anyone want to join us?

here is a little information about Baby Loves Disco:

baby loves disco is an afternoon dance party for little kids (6 months-7 years) and (especially) their parents: featuring best djs playing feel good tracks guaranteed to get those little booties moving and grooving.

this latest and most unlikely dance craze was started in the US and pulled over the globe to debut in Hong Kong, thanks to Coco Wong and Amanda Cook that took it upon themselves to bring the original family dance party to Hong Kong where they will be hosting and running the show.

The fun spills out from all corners of the coolest club in town: bubble machines, magician, face painting, DJ lessons, a chill-out area (with tents, and toys), diaper changing stations, healthy snacks, baby cocktails and dancing, lots of dancing (and yes, the cash bar will be open for mommy and daddy!). but at it’s core, baby loves disco is a community event that brings kids together with kids and parents and parents together with parents, guaranteed to be the best time you've had at a kids event.....

I had read about this some months ago and was wondering how long it will take to come to this part of the world. Basically parents can take babies along, anyone can dance (babies in parents' arms, older kids, adults) and the music would be from the 80s.

Not sure how loud the music would be for the teeny ones, but think the organisers would take that into consideration. Would have to miss this one cos family is visiting... another time.

Wow, that's not my thing at all, and I don't think my son would like it.

I'm sure lots of people will have fun though.
