Hey ladies...I am a Mom to a wonderful(almost) 4 year old boy...I have been lucky enough to stay home with him.....I feel though that he hasn't been able to make friends because he is so much my "sidekick" as I call him ;-)...I am so not the "mom" that will be at the park trying to arrange "playdates"...but I do want him to have friends..he loves interacting with other kids at Chuck E. Cheese...or the park or wherever...I am afraid it is me because I am just not the type to set up a playdate. I am 30, however most of my friends are younger and childless..their prioities seem to be with going out in uptownor going to the coolest bar..Ahhh.. I would just like to meet some Moms that can relate to me and that our kids can play togehther....We are a christian household, but have yet to join a church because my husband works nights and it's just hard to get everyone up on Sunday morning and go to church,,,I would love some interaction with other moms as well as some friends for my son...we live right by the Galleria...if anyone is interested in getting our kids together or having a "mommy group" let me know...

What can I do next?

Hi A.,

Have you thought of signing your little one up for Soccer Tots or a community t-ball team?

I'm a Mom of a little 3 year old boy and would love to set up a play date if we didn't live so far away.

Have you looked into MOPS (mother's of preschoolers) or an Early Childhood PTA in your area? There's also the MOMS Club that has chapters around. Go to a local park and you'll run into other moms. It's easy to strike up a conversation about the kids. Go to the Galleria early in the morning with the mall walkers and see if there's other moms there working out with kids. Call local churches to see about Mother's Day Out programs or bible studies for you with child care available. Our church in Plano has an exercise class 2 days a week that's open to anybody. Maybe look for that in a local church. Look at a gym like ASI gymnastics that might have a 4 yo program. Take him to the library for story time.
I have an almost 4 yo boy and he was getting bored at home so I sent him to preschool 2 days a week. He loves it and always asks to go on nonschools days.

Hey A., I have a little boy that turned 4 in February, and he would love to play. I'm like you, I'm terrible at setting up play dates, but I want him to socialize. I live in Allen, but I work near the Galleria. If you were interested in setting something up, let me know!
