Built by a parent who just wanted to find something fun to do this weekend
It started with a simple Saturday morning question: "What should we do with our toddler today?"
As a father of a toddler in Huntsville, I found myself spending way too much time every weekend searching through multiple websites, scrolling through endless event calendars, and filtering out things that weren't kid-friendly. Concert at the Orion? Not with a toddler. Wine tasting downtown? Maybe in a few years. Late-night festival? Yeah, right.
I kept thinking: Why isn't there just ONE place that shows ONLY family and kid events? Every site I found mixed everything together - adult concerts, bar events, business networking - forcing parents to dig through dozens of irrelevant listings just to find that one story time or family festival.
"When you have a toddler, your life becomes centered around your toddler. Your free time is their free time. Your weekend plans are their weekend plans."
So I did what any sleep-deprived, slightly obsessive parent would do - I built the solution myself. What started as a personal tool to help me quickly find family activities turned into something I realized other Rocket City parents needed too.
And that's how Rocket City Parents was born.
Rocket City Parents exists for one simple reason: to make it easier for families to spend quality time together.
We curate only the events that matter to families with kids. No more sifting through adult-only events. No more wondering if something is age-appropriate. No more missing out on that perfect Saturday activity because it was buried on page three of some community calendar.
Only family & kid events - nothing else
Updated weekly with the latest activities
By Huntsville parents, for Huntsville parents
As a parent, I know how precious those weekend hours are. Between naps, meals, and meltdowns, you might only have a small window to get out and do something fun. The last thing you want is to waste that time scrolling through websites or driving to an event that turns out to be not kid-friendly.
Rocket City Parents is my attempt to give that time back to families. Because those moments - watching your toddler's face light up at the splash pad, hearing them giggle on the carousel, seeing them make a new friend at story time - those are the moments that matter.
Welcome to our community. Let's make some memories.
