Play in times of Hardship

8th Dec 2022

Please see the information received from PlayBoard NI.

With the cost of living crisis impacting families across Northern Ireland, PlayBoard has developed a new resource highlighting a range of low-cost play ideas.

 

Play is central to children’s physical, mental, and emotional well-being. All children have a natural urge to play and that need will remain, even during times of economic hardship. Play activity does not need to be expensive or involve costly toys and gadgets - there are many ‘free and found’ play opportunities that already exist within our schools and other settings.

 

See link below to attached document: Play in times of hardship has practical play ideas and activities which can be enjoyed at little or no cost.
