Mommy Cocktail Hour
Is Combining Play Dates and Alcohol a Good Idea? I say NO to cocktails and juice box playdates! If you want cocktail time, definitely have a Mom’s Night Out, without the kids!
The invitation reads “Mommy Cocktail and Baby Play Date: Bring your little ones over for a play date while the mommies have a well-deserved ‘refreshing’ drink.” You might also hear these gatherings described as “Juice Boxes and Wine Glasses,” “Wine and Whine,” “Tots and Tonic” or even “Booze and Babies.”
Combining play dates and adult drinks is a hot-button issue that often elicits strong emotional reactions and opinions on both sides of the spectrum.

I agree - not a fan here. The term “play date” doesn’t imply that one of (or some of) the mommies involved will then need a DD.
Exactly!! I had the Alison Rhodes, The Safety Mom on the show and she reminded us that with the holidays and those spiked punches — make sure to empty those glasses and keep the spiked punch out of the reach of our kids…it’s an accident waiting to happen!
