Hibiscus Coast/Orewa Playgroup

Playgroups foster children's mental health and well-being by providing opportunities for social interaction, emotional regulation, and skill development through structured and unstructured play.

We offer a safe environment for children to explore their feelings, experiment with different roles, and learn how to navigate social situations. This contributes to their overall emotional maturity and resilience, to help develop an understanding of emotions and social cues, and gets them ready for kindergarten. 

This playgroup offers a chance for parents to connect with others, share experiences, and build support networks, which can reduce feelings of isolation and improve overall well-being. It also provides opportunities for parents to learn new parenting strategies, social skills, and foster their child's development, further contributing to a more positive and confident parenting experience.

This is a free drop-in playgroup, no need to register. Koha appreciated if you are able to give. We provide refreshments.
