Ladies and Gentleman, the mother of all events is about to hit Des Moines, and we hope you can join us. You will not want to miss it!

Have you heard of a little film titled Frozen? If not, you’ve obviously been hiding under a rock. If you have, then you are aware this has been a huge hit film for young children.

Here at DMMB we know a thing or two about young children – and play dates! We are so excited to announce our September event will be FROZEN themed!

With Gratitude to Our Event Sponsors:

Title Sponsor – Trixies Salon

Trixies Salon is sponsoring this play date. We are thrilled to be working with this wonderful Aveda salon in Des Moines. Trixies has so much to offer their clients, and in such a wonderful atmosphere! They do Glitz and Glam parties for little girl birthday parties that are so much more. The September promo is going to be $15.00 conditioning treatments.

Whether you’re new to town or have lived here all your life, you have likely heard of Trixies Salon. Located at 6209 SE 14th Street, Des Moines, Trixies is the only Aveda Concept Salon on the south side, and their reputation is renowned.

Trixies. Even the name sounds FUN! But the fun doesn’t stop there.

In addition to everything you would expect from any Aveda Salon, Trixies offers a color lounge that guests relax in and receive complimentary services that they pick from a menu. If guests do not receive two of the complimentary services they requested, their whole color service is FREE! Oh, and did we mention they have free Wi-Fi? Trixies stands by their mission and what they represent as an Aveda Salon.

Event Host/Location Details

This exciting event will be held at Backyard Adventures located at 3135 99th Street in Urbandale.

Backyard Adventures is a long-time sponsor of DMMB, and we love them so much. What an amazing place to hang out with the ice queen and princesses, explore the “palaces,” and run off some energy! Be sure to check them out on Facebook and visit them for your outdoor playground, patio furniture, and Goalsetter systems. Not only is their Open Play a huge lifesaver to moms on rainy or chilly days, but Backyard Adventures is also the perfect place to have a birthday party. They are offering a $25.00 off promo in September and October!

Face Painting by Queen Bee

We’re honored to have Queen Bee Face Painting joining us that morning! Whether you want a princess tiara, a pirate, or a shark, Queen Bee can paint them all and then some!

Connect with Queen Bee on Facebook and learn more about how she can bring fun to your next event. Read more about her in our recent local business highlight.

Meet & Greet with Elsa

Ice Queen, Elsa, will be making an appearance around 10:30 and will be available for a “Meet & Greet.” Say hi, give hugs, and get your picture taken with this famous queen.

Thanks to Grace Ballet & Gymnastics Studio‘s Princess Parties for gracing us with Elsa and her ice fairies. Dancing Princess Parties would love to make your next event even more special. They offer Silver, Gold, and Diamond packages to customize the event to your needs and budget. Rates include location for your party, which means NO cleanup! If you’ like them to travel to you, they’ll do that, too!

Food & Drink

We’ll enjoy a FROZEN treat from Tropical Smoothie Café.

Be sure to show them some love by liking them on Facebook, and stop in to see them in Ankeny! Their smoothies are second to none and are made from superior fresh fruits and vegetables. They also offer a wide variety of food options that are just as healthy as they are tasty. Their toasted wraps, sandwiches, flatbreads, and gourmet salads are made fresh with high-quality meats and cheeses and topped with fresh produce and flavorful sauces. 

We’ll have a variety of cupcakes from From Scratch Bakery.

From Scratch specializes in baked goods using fresh and quality ingredients. Perfect for all your homemade needs during the week and especially for those custom orders, holidays, and special occasions. Owner Rachael Owens specializes in cinnamon rolls, pies, breads, cakes, cupcakes, and so much more. Go see her at the Ankeny Farmers’ Market Saturdays from 8 a.m. to noon, May through September, or contact her at 515.468.1597 or [email protected].
