It's National Playday today! The theme this year is all about highlighting better spaces for play. We thought we would share our Facebook group called Role Play Ideas and Inspiration as it features so many different play activities that you can pick and choose from. The ideas are using everyday resources that you might have at home and using them to create some brilliant role play areas for your little ones to enjoy! Here's the link: https://buff.ly/4fhVHLg

It's International Friendship Day!

Here at Pop Up Play Village we understand just how important friendship is, not only for our children but also for ourselves! Our sessions are a great way for you and your children to meet new people and form new friendships as well as come along and play with friends. We love how sociable our village is and one of the most rewarding parts of running play sessions is seeing children and adults socialising and playing together!

Does your class need a confidence boost?

Role play provides a safe space for even the quietest pupils to shine. In a world of imagination, there’s no pressure, just possibilities. Children can explore new roles, try out brave voices, practise social skills and build self belief without fear of getting it wrong.

Through role play, pupils:

✨ Develop communication and language skills
✨ Strengthen teamwork and cooperation
✨ Build resilience and problem solving skills
✨ Grow in confidence at their own pace

When we give children permission to imagine, we give them permission to believe in themselves.
