MPC's Malibu MOPS program is one of more than 4,000 MOPS programs in the U.S. and 29 other countries. MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) began in 1973 when eight moms came together in Wheat Ridge, CO. For two hours, while their children received care, these mothers talked, laughed, ate, passed a basket for childcare expenses, had a craft demonstration and ended with a short devotional. In this humble beginning, the seeds of the MOPS concept and format were planted. Through friendship, creative outlets, and instruction, the women began to understand that "mothering matters." Today, the same needs for significance are met in much the same way in MOPS groups across the United States and around the world.  For more information about MOPS International, see www.mops.org.
