You deserve a night out....
Mark down Thursday, March 11th on the calendar! The Blue Bunny and the Dedham Parent Time group are hosting a Parents Night Out Reception with author Kim Foley MacKinnon. Kim will be there to sign copies of Boston Baby. The Blue Bunny is offering a 10% discount on all merchandise for the evening!

Check out the latest review of Boston Baby by New York City Mama. New York mom Carol Cain says New Yorkers visiting Beantown should grab a copy of Boston Baby.
"If you live in Boston, or even if you just like to take trips with the family to this great city, I would highly recommend you pick up a copy."
I ♥ MY BOSTON BABY @ AURA
Join us at Aura at the Seaport Hotel as we celebrate the publication of Boston Baby: A Field Guide for Urban Parents. Each family will receive a copy of Boston Baby compliments of Aura and a bundle of great gifts from local businesses who are spreading the love.
This is a seriously kid-friendly event! Friday nights at Aura are high-class, no-fuss, family-style dining. (The homemade baby food is divine!) And Aura is one of author Kim Foley MacKinnon's top picks from her chapter on "Best Spots for Dining Out with Kids." Kim will be on hand to sign copies and speak to patrons about exciting urban adventures in and around Boston. In addition to Aura's fantastic restaurant romper-room, Artbeat will be on hand to run an arts & crafts table for the little ones!
Friday, March 5, 2010; 5:30PM-8PM. Reservations are highly recommended.
