The importance of socialising! 👫 When kids socialise, it helps them start to develop their sense of self. As they start to understand how others react to them, they also start to learn what others expect from them, helping them to develop their social skills.

Today we get to celebrate the inaugural International Day of Play! 🤸

The United Nations General Assembly got together and made the 11th of June the International Day of Play - because they believe (and so do we) that every child can reach their full potential, with the time, space and access to play.

97% of children believe play is important yet one in three do not have the time to play.

To change this, children are asking adults and decision-makers to:
• Invest in children’s well-being by protecting their right to play.
• Provide children with more time and opportunities to play, including in school.
• Protect their right to play by creating safe and accessible places to play, including for those with special needs.
• Respect their rights to be heard in decisions impacting their right to play.
• Support them in developing social skills through play.
