What is a Playgroup and Why is it Important?

Playgroup is a group of children who meet at a set time on scheduled days to learn, interact, and play together. It can be structured or non-structured play (songs, dance, games, activities) that is organized and facilitated usually by an adult. Playgroups are a great opportunity for you and your child to be involved with others in your community.
 Playgroups are important for children because they learn important social skills, learn to understand emotions,  develop motor skills, problem solving and creative skills. Play is an important outlet for children because they can express themselves and build confidence.
