BabyBjorn, City Dads Celebrate International Babywearing Week 2015

City Dads Group will team up with baby product giant BabyBjorn to “Embrace the World” together during the 2015 International Babywearing Week celebration.

International Babywearing Week (Oct 4 – 10, 2015) promotes and advocates the many benefits of using a close-fitting baby carrier to bond with your infant and help him or her thrive through increased human contact and touch.

Several City Dads Group outposts are celebrating this positive health experience, along with the importance of dads being active caretakers of their children, by organizing members to take leisurely group walks at iconic and well-known locations next week. Our flagship community, NYC Dads Group, will be kicking things off this Sunday, Oct 4 together with the Baby Buggy Fatherhood Initiative for a stroll through the Bronx Zoo. A few of the other events include:

• ABQ Dads Group: Walking around at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta
• Cleveland Dads Group: Exploring the Children’s Museum of Cleveland
• Columbus Dads Group: Walking around HighBanks Metro Park
• Dallas Dads Group: Strolling through Klyde Warren Park
• Denver Dads Group: Cruising the Cherry Creek Trail by the Platte River
• NYC Dads Group: Strolling the Bronx Zoo
• LA Dads Group: Visiting the Travel Town Train Museum
• Philly Dads Group: Having fun at Smith Memorial Playground
• Chicago Dads Group: Cruising the Lincoln Park Zoo

• San Francisco Dads Group: Enjoying the Golden Gate Bridge from Crissy Field East Beach

BabyBjorn, City Dads Group’s official event sponsor, will provide all our participating fathers with a new baby carrier for the day’s activities.

In recent years, our babywearing dads have walked over the Brooklyn Bridge, marveled at priceless art at the MET Museum, and climbed the “Rocky” steps together in Philadelphia among other things.
