In + Around Dallas

We LOVE Dallas! The category of in + around Dallas features articles guiding you through the heart of Dallas — major events, favored restaurants, etc. — as well as what to do on date nights, family outings, and where to go in Dallas to learn and live big!

Dallas Moms publishes original, personal stories and advice from local moms, as well as relevant and fun information for those of us in the trenches of parenthood.

Every article published via Dallas Moms — whether someone from our in-house team, a guest writer, or a sponsored writer — uses their words to reflect their own opinions, experiences, and beliefs. No singular post or collection of posts represents the opinions, beliefs, or agenda of Dallas Moms.

My oldest son has a dream.  Some children want to be football players, firemen, race car drivers.... Well, not my six-year-old. No, he wants to be a LEGO® Master Builder.  He l-o-v-e-s LEGOS® and so do his siblings. And,...
We have had the pleasure of attending some really great birthday parties over the last few years. While there are many great places in and around Dallas to host a fun toddler birthday party, I wanted to share a...

She rocked our first photo booth at drybar for DFW Moms Night Out last Fall, and we had such a great response, we asked if she'd come back and do it all over again.  Thanks to Kate from Kate Love Photography...
If I could get away with it, I would eat desserts for every meal.  I’m a bad example for my child-I won’t eat all of my dinner just to save room for dessert.  I have a bad habit of...
 Exactly one week ago, over 200 women gathered together at Watters Creek in Allen for our 3rd DFW Mom's Night Out!  What started out as a dreary day, turned beautiful. . .and then cold! But, we hope for those who...
