Here's the Top Ten reasons why Playgroups rock!
1. It’s a chance to get out of the house, catch up with other mums (dads, grandparents...) and at the same time let your child have fun, playing and interacting.
2. There are playgroups for everyone, from young parents, to indigenous parents, dads, children with disabilities, baby groups and many more.
3. It’s time to catch up with others, swap stories and share tips over a coffee.
4. Your child has other friends to play with and new play experiences.
5. There‘s usually painting, play dough and singing– things which aren’t always easy to do at home.
6. It’s out of your house – a special outing for fun that doesn’t cost a lot of money – about the same as a cup of coffee!
7. You can make friends and get a support network that could last a lifetime.
8. Your children can play in a safe space, which gives you peace of mind.
9. Your child will love that the toys at playgroup are different to home – and there are also playgroup association toy libraries!
10. Chances are there’s a playgroup near you – but if you can’t find one that suits, we can help you start up a new one.
