Welcome to The Weekly Wiggle 🌱
brought to you by The Wiggle Room

The days are getting longer, the puddles are perfect for splashing, and it finally feels like we can get excited about spring.

If you’re trying to find that balance between getting out and not overdoing it — this week’s for you.

This Week

Mother’s Only Yin (Drop-In)
Tuesday evening 6:45pm
LSCO All-Purpose Room

A quiet, slower-paced class designed for moms who are looking to restore. No expectations, no pressure to commit to a series, just show up, breathe, and move gently.

Local Things to Do This Week

Here are a few easy, family-friendly ways to get out this week:

Library baby & toddler times (free)
• Early spring playground visits (mud = part of the fun)
Drop-in coffee meetups (low pressure, come as you are)

And behind the scenes, we’re building more of these “easy yes” options into The Wiggle Room calendar.

Invisible Obstacle Course

Tell your child the room has turned into a secret obstacle course… but you’re the only one who can see it.

Call out what they need to do:

  • “Step over the giant sleeping cat”

  • “Crawl under the spider web”

  • “Tiptoe past the crunchy leaves”

  • “Balance across the wobbly bridge”

  • “Jump over the tiny puddles”

Then let them take over and design one for you.

It gets them moving, thinking, and usually laughing at your attempts too.

Wiggle Room Updates

We’ve been quietly building something really special this month.

There are so many incredible supports, classes, and small businesses for moms and families in Lethbridge… but unless you already know someone, they can be hard to find. So we pulled a few of our favourites together.

Introducing: RESET Packages

A simple way to experience a few of the best things our community has to offer, without having to piece it all together yourself. We’re keeping these limited so each experience feels intentional.

Depending on the package, this includes:
• Movement (yoga)
• A workshop focused on strength + real-life wellness
• A creative night out (fairy gardens 🌿)
• A little something just for you (yes, even a spray tan option)
• A few thoughtful extras

These are designed to feel supportive, not overwhelming.

Most people are choosing them as:

  • a Mother’s Day gift

  • or a reset moment for themselves (you’re allowed to choose yourself)

LSCO Partnership Spotlight 🤝

Some of our upcoming events are happening in collaboration with the Lethbridge Senior Citizens Organization, and we love what this is becoming. These are intentionally intergenerational, welcoming spaces, where:

  • seniors attend by donation

  • families feel comfortable showing up as they are

  • and community actually feels like a village

Upcoming highlights:
Mother’s Day Photos (April 12: back in time for gifting)
Fairy Garden Night (April 28)
Family Yoga (starting April 17)

Two online courses are happening this week:

If you’ve been wanting something a little more structured, this is where a lot of moms start. Take a look at the group classes available.

Mother’s Day Photos 💛
Sunday, April 12 | 9am–2pm

If getting a photo with your kids has been on your mental list forever… this is your sign.

A relaxed, beautifully styled setup where you can choose between:
• a picnic scene
• or a tea party vibe

Photos will be delivered in time for Mother’s Day, which makes this an easy gift (or something you’ll be very glad you did later). Add on a custom magnet personalized with your photos.

Coming Soon 👀

We’re also working with The Movie Mill… Check out our pre-show regulation activity at family & baby showings this month.

Think: easy mornings, low expectations, and somewhere you can actually bring your kids without stress.

A Night Just for You

If you’ve been craving something simple, creative, and a little bit cozy…

Rooted in Whimsy: Fairy Garden Night
Tuesday, April 28 | 7–9pm

A hands-on evening where you get to slow down and create your own miniature fairy garden.

Everything’s taken care of for you:
• laser-cut kit + supplies
• a small plant for your garden
• light snacks + drinks
• a calm, welcoming space to just exist for a bit

No pressure to be “crafty.” This is about the experience, not the outcome. Spots are limited, and this one will likely fill with Mother’s Day coming up.

Tiny Brain Teaser 🧠

Ask your kid:

“What is something you can give away but still keep?”

Let them explain their answer 👀

Potential answer: your word / a promise

For All Stages of Family Building:

We want this space to hold more than just the “highlight reel” parts of parenting. If you’re walking through something quieter, heavier, or in-between… you’re not alone.

Swaddled in the Stars is a gentle snail mail group for loss moms
• We’re exploring a TTC / infertility tool swap (OPKs, auto-injectors, etc.)
• And small, quiet ways to support moms who are doing this more solo than expected

A Small Ask 🌱

If you’ve been enjoying The Weekly Wiggle, it would mean a lot if you:
forward this to a friend
• share it on socials
• or just hit reply and said hi

We’re building this as we go, and we’re really glad you’re here for it.
