Mom Index’s Top Arizona July Activities

0

I hope you enjoyed my first guest post in June.  It’s been a lot of fun searching for all the wonderful events and activities throughout the Valley.  The Phoenix area is such fantastic place to raise children and to stay active during the entire year.

Mom Index is growing and we are excited to be the comprehensive resource for Valley moms and parents.  In addition to offering a great events calendar, Mom Index keeps you informed about everything related to raising kids in the Valley of the Sun.

Join Us (It’s Free) and be sure tell us you “Like” us on Facebook and to follow us on Twitter.  We post a “MI Find of the Day” every day of the year and strive to keep you up-to-date about important recalls, new products and services and attractions to make your everyday life a little easier and brighter.
