[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]3 families with 6 adults & 5 kids (6 month old, 11 month old, 1 year old (not walking yet), 3 year old & 4 year old) want to plan something to hang out their 1st families playdate. All 3 daddies are friends, and they want to have fun while 3 mommies (have met 2-3 times) mainly responsible to take care of kids. All 3 daddies are so excited at this idea. It will be a daylight event, and any indoor suggestion in dmv area that can keep kids occupied/entertained for 2-3 hours while mommies would not be overwhelmed/bored or busy to death. What hours would work for these age groups? I am supposed all mommies would bring a stroller or a baby carrier for babies/toddler in case they need a nap. I am the one that have 11 month old & 4 year old, one family has 6 month old & 3 year old, and one family has 1 year old. No one want to host at their house because every house is messy. I have some ideas, like mall (too lame?), indoor playground (difficult to entertain babies & toddler?), museum/aquarium (too packed/overwhelmed?)....any good suggestions?[/quote]

Why don't the daddies just go do something?  [/quote]

OP here, because they don't want to make this as a 1 time only thing. They want to promote this family playdate down the road, so that our kids can be friends to hang out in the near future (I understand they are young, but we have to start somewhere), mommies get to know each other better (promote friendship, right now mommies really does not know each other well at all), and they can have fun hang out at the same time. They want to do this family playdate a few times every year. And, everyone hang out together, so no wives (not me) can make any complaints. If everything works out, one day we may be able to do weekend getaway trip when kids are older, e.g. to beach, fishing, amusement park etc.[/quote]
