the basin playgroup, the basin
/Playgroups are an absolute savior for Mammas with preschool kids of all ages. If you are a Mamma with a newborn, it’s still a great space to meet some new mums and have a chat over a cuppa and just get that much needed socialization. As your little ones grow older there is a range of toys available for babies right up to primary school age.
The Basin Playgroup is such an inclusive space, all Mamma’s here are super friendly, always up for a chat. There is no commitment to sign up per term and guess what? It is FREE! The wonderful volunteers who run it make you feel so welcome and all the Mamma’s there are just so lovely. The playgroup boasts a great indoor and outdoor area which will definitely keep your little ones entertained.
Mamma’s boys love playing with the trucks and cars inside, as well as cooking up a storm in the kitchen - great for that imaginary play. There’s an art room (be prepared to bring home a little glitter on your clothes). Outside is well loved and is home to many beautiful gum trees giving it lovely bushy vibes. It has cubbies, a play structure, climbing frames, a sand pit and a WHOLE garage filled with toys.
