## 🎉 Who Are We?

We’re not just a club — we’re a social rebellion against boring parenting.
Welcome to The Grown Up Table, where playdates come with playlists, errands come with bartenders, and you can show up in a cape with your kid and no one blinks.
We believe fun isn’t just for kids — it’s for families. Together. That’s why we built this.
