No matter our age, we girls need a little pampering every now and then. Sometimes, you want to share that pampering bliss with the little people in your life. If you have a child who likes to get their nails done, a Mommy and Me manicure can be a great way to spend some time together. We scoured Des Moines for nail salons that not only welcome the small set, but cater to them. So—go ahead—enjoy a bonding moment and have your mini-me join you for a little pampering and polish!
