Playcentre Messy Play Week

3-7 March 2025, Nationwide
We welcome families with children aged 0-6 years to come along to this free event being held at Playcentres throughout New Zealand.
Messy play is essential for early childhood development. Join us as we delve into an array of messy play offerings, from paint and playdough, to sand and clay, to slime and gloop.
Come and explore messy play activities that spark creativity and unlock learning. Get involved and have fun with your child without the mess at home.
With over 400 Playcentres across New Zealand there is one near you! Make a booking to visit your local centre at: www.playcentre.org.nz.
