HOBART
Little Footprints Hobart is temporarily closed, and our Friday morning Playgroup will be suspended until further notice. We hope to reopen in the second half of 2024, and will keep you updated on our progress. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and look forward to seeing you all again soon.
Little Footprints Hobart began in October 2018 as a meeting place for parents and a rich learning environment for children 0-5 years. Parents make new friends and children play. Everyone’s happy.
As an incorporated association under Playgroups Tasmania, Little Footprints is run as a not-for-profit organisation for the benefit of the Hobart community.
Little Footprints Hobart focuses its imaginative play-based program around a different theme each term. Imaginary play encourages children to explore new ideas, learn from their surrounds and engage socially with other children. This social engagement helps to develop skills like discipline, problem solving and empathy.
Your child learns best when he or she is playing, exploring, creating and imagining. Experience is the best teacher. Playgroup allows children to use negotiation skills, including taking turns and sharing. It also provides opportunities for expressing their feelings and experimenting with solutions.
Language skills are developed during imaginative play. Children practice listening, comprehending and talking. What may seem like a humble playgroup is actually a rich learning environment for young children. We look forward to welcoming you next Friday.
