Ten Ideas For Mom's Night Out | New mom gifts

Being a stay-at home Mom is rewarding and we all love being around our babies and children, but let's face it, we all need some alone time and some adult interaction. Forming bonds with other mothers in the same situation is a great way to get validation and build long-lasting relationships. Your circle of new Moms should try to get out to do something fun together at least once a month. Hire a babysitter or get Dad involved so that you can take a break and have some much deserved time to yourself. Here are some fun ideas to do with your friends:

1) Go to the Spa. Schedule a package deal for your group at a local spa for a massage, facial and manicure or any combination of these things. All Moms can use a little pampering and this is a great gift to give yourself. A less expensive option would be to buy manicure kits, nail polishes, etc. and set up a relaxing spa atmosphere in someone's home where you give each other manicures.

2) Have a Bunco night. Bunco is a dice game that is all the rage for groups of 12 or more people (4 people per table/group). The official bunko rules and instructions on playing can be found online at WorldBunco. Of course, food and drink are a must at bunko parties so have everyone bring a little something to share.

3) Have a progressive dinner night. Each one of the women in the group hosts a part of the dinner at their home - one for appetizers, one for the main course, one for dessert and then the final stop for drinks.

4) Have a game night. You can play group party games such as Cranium, Catch-phrase, Pictionary, Outburst or Taboo. There are so many great games out there so find some that appeal to the tastes of your group and don't be afraid to try something new.

5) Go out to a dinner theater. Many cities have local dinner theatres where you see a musical show and eat dinner. Check your newspaper or local phone book for a location in your area.

6) Throw a pool party or backyard barbecue. Fun in the sun is a great way for the women in your group to kick back and relax.

7) Have a dessert night. Each mom brings her favorite dessert to share. What woman doesn't have a sweet tooth?

8) Go bowling. Most bowling alleys have open bowling on the weekends and even some weekday evenings. Be sure to call and reserve the number of lanes that you'll need for your group and double-check to see what evenings or days have open bowling.

9) Go to a movie or watch a DVD at someone's home. This would be the perfect time to see one of those "chick-flicks" that you've been wanting to watch. Crying and laughing with your girlfriends is a great way to bond.

10) Outdoor activity like biking, canoeing, walking in the park, etc. Mom's often don't have time to exercise and having buddies to "workout" with is a great way to get motivated.
