Parents, Look no further!

Tuesday, March 18, 2014, Bristol, CT.– Wondering what to do with the kids this weekend?  Look no further.  Hulafrog, a national network of local community guides for families, has launched its latest website in the Bristol-Southington area.  The site promises parents a daily dose of the best local activities, destinations, deals and other resources for kids.

 

Hulafrog answers many of the questions parents often ask each other every day like “Where can I take my antsy toddler this morning?” “What’s the best place for my princess daughter’s 6th birthday party?”“Which preschool do parents love most?” or “What should my family do this weekend?”

Hulafrog was launched in 2010 by Sherry Lombardi and Kerry Bowbliss, two media entrepreneurs out of the NYC area, who needed a better way to keep track of all there was for kids to do in their community.  Since then, local Hulafrog sites have been debuting across the country.  Each site is run by a mom (or dad) as a part-time business from home and covers about a dozen towns within a 15-mile radius.

Fresh Local Info For Moms On The Go

 

The key to having a valuable resource to the community is being “current, comprehensive and mobile” says publisher Lana Bennett, a mom of 2 who runs Hulafrog out of her home in Bristol.  “Our site is brand new and already has hundreds of upcoming events and even many more businesses– from dance studios to kid-friendly restaurants to pediatricians – that matter to most parents.  And it’s easy to get on your computer, tablet or mobile phone.”
