Education: Teaching parents the importance of tracking "kicks" and how to identify changes in their baby’s normal movement patterns.

App Promotion: Encouraging parents to download and use the free Count the Kicks app.

Engagement: Distributing educational brochures, kick-counting bracelets, and sharing resources.

Advocacy: Serving as a friendly, supportive resource for families who attend the event.
