Friendship and Support at Baby Playgroup

Babies are never too young for play....and their parents are never too old! 

From birth, babies constantly explore everything around them, learning through what they see, the things they touch, the food they taste and the sounds they hear.  And as their parent, you are priviliged to be your baby's first educator and playmate.

As new parents, play is probably low on your list of priorities in between the mountains of nappies and things to do.  Knowing where to start is often the hardest part.  This is where Baby Playgroup comes in.

Baby Playgroup is the perfect excuse to escape the house for a few hours to play with your baby and meet other new parents. In this informal and relaxed environment your baby is exposed to a wealth of valuable new experiences - different sights and sounds as well as the opportunity to socialise with new people.  As they grow, they can explore new toys and develop their motor skills.  You'll also bring home new ideas for play which can help your baby develop their mind and body.

Making Baby Playgroup a part of the weekly routine can be a bonus for parents and carers too.  Discovering that everyone is going through the same joys, frustrations and sleepless nights as you can be a huge relief.  The friendship and support that new parents find at Baby Playgroup is what makes the groups so successful.

Baby Playgroups are an ideal way to continue a mother's group started at the hospital or health clinic. To start of join a Baby Playgroup in your area, call your state Playgroup Association.
