At Mulligrubs Middlemount Playgroup, we are about enabling young people to build friendships and develop social skills in a safe and inclusive setting. The right to play, the right to freedom of expression, and the right to education and holistic development are all rights that our playgroup actively promotes each week.
So, in support of Children�s Rights Week and dress-up month at Play Matters Australia, we are planning on holding multiple dress-up days that will focus on supporting children, aged from birth to five years with their well-being and healthy development, while also promoting our playgroup to new families and connecting with other community services in our area.
At each event, be it the Mulligrubs Cup, Trick or Treat Event or our end-of-the-month Dress-Up Gala we plan to offer family-friendly activities such as arts and crafts, group games, story times, music, and dance sessions. To name a few.

Event Details
At Benaraby Playgroup we are all about enabling our young people the chance to build friendships and develop social skills in a safe and inclusive setting. The right to play, the right to freedom of expression, and the right to education and holistic development are all rights that our playgroup actively promotes each week. This year in conjunction with the Benaraby State Schools ’Welcome to Prep Orientation Day’, our playgroup is going to run a playgroup open day.
In consultation with our regular playgroup member�s, we have discovered that the children currently have a strong interest in role/pretend play and hence our reason for choosing this year�s theme ’Dress Up Play’. Unfortunately, as our playgroup currently has very limited resources that allow children to dive deeply into this type of play. When role/pretend playing, children use their imaginations and it encourages them to share, take turns and cooperate, which contribute to developing their social skills. Imaginative play lets children explore different aspects of their personalities, allows them to process their own emotions and exposes them to roles others play within their community.
So that we can ensure all our children have the right to a standard of living that supports their wellbeing and healthy development, Benaraby Playgroup would love to purchase a range of new costumes, equipment that expands our children�s understand of the world around them and how to navigate it in a healthy way, as well as some quality storage to keep these resources in the best condition for as long as possible.

Event Details
Possum Club Playgroup has invited unique Australian musician Lizzie Young, who plays the violin, sings popular children’s songs and plays dress ups, to host a special LizzieLand Children’s Rights Celebration. Lizzie sings a special song entitled ’He’s a Cockatoo’ by Don Spenser. The chorus is:
“It�s a Cockatoo – and he will talk to you,
Or imitate any sound you want him to.
It�s a cockatoo – he�s Aussie through and through.
It�s a �Hello cocky – have a cracker�,
�Hello cocky – what�s the matter�.
It�s a sulphur crested cockatoo.”
In line with this years’ theme that ’All children have the right to a standard of living that supports their well-being and healthy development’, children will learn about the importance of conserving wildlife habitat whilst making cockatoo headbands to wear during the concert. The children will trace around their hands onto yellow cardboard to make the crest of the cockatoo and their parents will help them to attach the crest to white headbands.

A Big Messy Play Date offers children opportunities to get messy (be messy), using materials which may not be available at home (due to the mess!!). We make available play dough, water, mud/clay, sand, rice and lots of natural materials, with some basic tools, so that children can have varied sensory experiences.
The messy play date offers families an opportunity to play together, exploring the various activities. Participation is open to all age groups.
Children’s participation in planning and delivery
The children of our volunteers are always involved in the toy library. On this occasion we ask them what messy play activities they might like for themselves and other kids. The children love helping set up activities and even help in packing up at the end of the session. Only children can be our toy and activities testers!

Event Details
The project will consist of a weekend and after school series of creative workshops followed by a group exhibition event at the end of the week to celebrate the creativity, diversity, and expressive stories of those involved.
Each creative group workshop will involve art-making around the theme of ’creating well-being’ theme, for the participants to explore who they are, what they like about themselves, and the tools/skills/super powers and abilities they already have, who they have in their lives for the support networks, and then what worries them and ways to build their tools and resilience for their future selves and well-being.
The workshops will be facilitated by arts therapists and a youth worker, in a safe and supportive space to allow the children to explore who they are, what they have within and who they have around them, their rights to be who they are, and their sense of self and safety, to assist them to build ways to future proof their well-being.
Workshops will be held with age-appropriate content and in ways that the children can have choice and autonomy, express and explore themselves with materials that benefit their choice of expression and work. Creative artworks, poems, stories and other pieces made from the workshops will be exhibited at a small event at the end of the week and parents, caregivers and friends will be invited to attend, strengthening the connections they have with themselves, their rights and their community.
