With the lovely spring weather in Texas and Mother’s Day around the corner, there’s no better time to enjoy a picnic outside!
Earlier this month, I took my youngest kid to the park for a park playdate and doubled the fun with an Easter Mommy & Me pop-up picnic, hosted by Gather and Gab. Gather and Gab is a Dallas based luxury picnic business designed to help women cultivate their closest relationships.
Gather and Gab also hosts a few seasonal pop-up picnics throughout the year, so you’ll definitely want to snag a ticket to the next one! These pop-up picnics are a great way to experience Gather and Gab’s services on a smaller scale. Since the pop-up picnics are ticketed events and open to the public, anyone can purchase seats and join in the fun. The pop-up picnics are not only adorable, but they are a budget-friendly activity you can enjoy with your kids and friends! Tickets for this picnic included admission for 2, charcuterie boxes for 2, one activity, one craft, a private Easter egg hunt, and a gift basket. A great value for a curated event!
Our little picnic was a delightful experience and perfect down to the last details. Whitney of Gather and Gab thought of everything and all the little touches and attention to detail made for a special morning out with my kiddo.
When we arrived, a beautiful table setting for our group was already waiting for us at Heritage Park as the perfect location and outdoor environment. We had a large grassy field all to ourselves surrounded by large mature trees for shade and breeze. Our table was decorated with an Easter theme and festive spring elements. Next to the grassy field was the stellar playground so kids could play there after. The picnic started with a slime making activity for the kids using fun spring colors, followed by a DIY bird feeder craft that us moms could participate in with our kids. While we let our painted crafts dry, picnic foods were served with individual charcuterie boxes by Board and Brie!
Our hostess Whitney also had a couple of lawn games set out so kids could get up throughout the picnic and play. After grazing and crafting, our kids were treated to a surprise Easter egg hunt with eggs filled with little toys and trinkets strategically hidden throughout the park. This worked out very well with our small group as each kid was given a limit of finding and keeping 12 eggs and wandering at their own pace. No competition, no racing for eggs.
The finishing touch; we loved the gift baskets filled with Easter activities for each kid to take home!
