Rock Out With Your Baby About

Music festival

If this year’s Splendour in the Grass festival was anything to go by, expect to see a creche at a rock concert near you.

It seems today’s parents aren’t content to move to the ‘burbs and venture in to the Entertainment Centre for a reunion tour every two years. They want to party, and they want to bring their kids.

This year’s Splendour fest, in Byron Bay, featured a Kid’s Club run by a local childminding company, as well as a wonderful-sounding parents room:

“[The] room is specifically for those festival goers who bring their little ones. A lovely lounge area for breast feeding mums to relax, area to rest, feed, change and play with your baby in peace and comfort away from the major commotion.”

Cool!

If you’re thinking of taking your sprog along to a festival, read handy tips from other parents on how to survive camping and crowds with a young one in tow. Don’t forget the sunscreen.
