Playgroup

I'm involved in a playgroup with my children each week, and have been for the past couple of years.

For those of you who have been to playgroup before, you know the benefit for you kids and hopefully for you also.

If you've never been to playgroup before and you have young children at home, I encourage you to explore the options in your area.

Playgroups can vary greatly depending on where they are and who they are run by, and what facilities and resources are available to the group. Generally speaking, they are a time for young children to mix and play together, and for parents to also get to know each other and enjoy doing some of the 'messy' things with your children that, quite frankly, you don't want to do at home!

My children look forward to playgroup each week, and love being able to play with toys they don't have at home, play with other children in their age group, and do craft each week.

I also look forward to catching up with the other Mums and watching my boys interact and learn with the other children.
