Alt Parenting Cardboard Construction Activity Day 9/13/25

Come join us a house with a huge yard for a midday hangout - bring your kids or just yourself! For the kids we will have a hosted cardboard construction activity that should be tons of fun. The yard has a big fence and so there is plenty of space for outdoor fun - bring yard toys if you have some! There will be some potluck BBQ action going on as well.

This social kid-friendly event is for alternative parents.

That includes:

  1. non-monogamous people (and allies!)
  2. single parents
  3. guardians of kiddos that aren't their bio kiddos (aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends, foster parents, parents who adopted, etc.)
  4. people in a co-living situation or want to be
  5. co-parents who are non-monogamous or platonic
  6. anyone in a non-traditional family arrangement

This event is for the types of folks listed above who want to explore alternative parenting and build non-traditional families. Parents, former parents, caregivers, and prospective parents/co-parents are welcome. You do not need to bring a kid to attend!

Please bring a food / beverage item to share if you can. But no worries if it's trouble.

Quick and easy introduction circle at 11am.

Note on cruising: We are open to folks who are seeking donors (sperm/uterus), but we are not open to cruising at this event. Same goes for dating cruising and co-parent cruising. You could potentially find someone after organically developing connections at the event, but we want to prioritize community connections. We do not want people to be objectified for their bodies. Please do not cruise. You will be asked to leave.

Please take a same-day COVID rapid test before coming.

If you have questions, please ask your co-hosts in the Plura chat or email altparentingsfbay@gmail.com. See you there!
