What a morning! ☀️

Winter sunshine brought the most beautiful energy to our playgroup today and the children absolutely thrived.

We explored messy play with flour and oil, squished and shaped playdough, ran fingers through coloured rice, and painted with flowers picked straight from our garden — smashed to release the most gorgeous organic colours. The children also got crafty making keychains for their school bags, which they were SO proud of.

Outside, we made bubbles completely from scratch, spend the next hour lost in their own imaginative play — was one of those moments you don’t forget in a hurry..

But the highlight of our morning?
We had the privilege of hosting four generations together — a senior great-grandmother visiting with her granddaughter and little great-granddaughter. To watch that joy, that connection, that love across generations in our little playgroup space… it’s hard to put into words. This is exactly why we do what we do. 🥹💛

If you’ve been thinking about joining us, this month is a wonderful time to come.

We’d love to meet you and your little one. 🌸

A rainy Melbourne morning couldn’t dampen our spirits today at Playgroup — and pun very much intended! 🌧️😄
We gathered indoors and filled the space with laughter, creativity, and a whole lot of wonderful mess.
Cloud play dough, jelly sea creature hunts, sand painting, rainbow slime, a little outdoor adventure, and the most heartwarming birthday celebration to close it all out. 🎂🌈 Watching children explore, create, and connect — with parents right there beside them — is exactly what this community is all about.
Thank you to every family who braved the weather and made today so special.
Can’t wait for what’s ahead! ✨
