It's safe to assume that every family needs to eat, right? And every kid needs the opportunity to run and play? And even more so...I think we can agree that parents like spending time with their friends...(which is a little easier to do  if it's over a play-date in a fenced in area with others who understand what it means to be a parent...am I right a third time?) If you agree, then you'll see why we want to combine it all together as we seek to serve young parents and their kiddos through having picnics at the park.
