What is a playgroup?

A playgroup is an informal session where babies and young children, and families or caregivers regularly meet in a relaxed environment. They are usually held once a week in community venues such as a hall, school or a park. Playgroup Queensland playgroups are run by participating families or volunteers.

Whether you are a mum, dad, carer, grandparent or family member, everyone is welcome at playgroup.

Why playgroups are good for children

Playgroups are fun. Your child will join in different play activities suitable for their age including singing, dancing, art and craft.

At playgroup, your child will enjoy stories and music, socialise with other children and adults, explore the world around them through play, try out new imaginative and creative activities, and have fun. Playgroups can also help young children start developing skills they need for school, like learning to share, taking turns and making friends.

Why playgroups are good for parents

Playgroups can give you and your child some time for one-on-one play away from home and everyday distractions. At playgroup you can enjoy new activities outside of the home, meet new people and make new friends, share ideas and experiences, play with your child, learn from other parents, watch your child learn and develop new skills while having fun, learn more about your community, and connect with local services.
