Does anyone focus on shows scheduled during the day? I don't want to do weekend shows, but with my kids schedule this summer I cannot see myself doing evening shows.

Thank you in advance for any information you are able to provide me with.
 
Yes, I have done several during the day. Most of the mother's in my area like being able to get together during school hours without there kids. I usually start these around 10am and do a brunch item. Not sure how this will play out once school is out, however it will not be that long of a down time due to the fact kids here are only out of school for 7 weeks in the summer.
 
mom2kr--What are you going to suggest to the moms who book these parties as to what to do with their kids? Are you hoping to do a mom and me type thing or what? I hope it works for you. I tried it last summer and didn't have much luck, but do not let that discourage you. It is a great idea!
