The Ultimate Guide to Parenting Events

Guide to Parenting Events

There are no shortages of parenting event options. Here is my list for the ultimate parenting events in the US. If you have more you'd like to see added to the list, let me know!

MommyCon

The Mother of All Parenting Events can sum up this North American series of events. Contrary to the name, this event is for all parents. With a minimum of eight events per year, this event has become the largest parenting event in the country. Features of the event include a boutique-like exhibitor hall, no less than a dozen educational sessions and a focus on community & bonding. The event focuses on modern and natural parenting methods and each attendee walks away with a gift bag filled with products from a variety of modern and natural parenting brands.  The event is geared towards expectant, new and toddler-staged parents with certain markets hosting early-childhood sessions that extend beyond the pre-school years.
