One of the program's highlights is the Babywearing Talk (by yours truly) that discussed topics about the basics of babywearing, benefits of babywearing, how to choose a carrier, and science behind babywearing. Through out the program lots of prizes provided by the generous sponsors were to given to some lucky mommy participants. While moms are all thrilled by the raffles and games, dads and companions are also entertained by the food and amazing items available at the momprenuers' selling booths. After the talks and games, the program ended with a Babywearing Momba (mommy zumba) led by Jessa Sumagaysay, Desiree Crame, Brenda Mae Estorba, and Faith Anne Mae Tahura. It was an entertaining event for babywearing mommies in Davao City. It was an entertaining and enlightening event for babywearing mommies in Davao City.
