Play Group:

It is well known that the benefits of play extend far beyond amusement and recreation for children, with experts saying it's an integral part of early development. The fact that thousands of Western Australian families attend playgroups on a regular basis indicates that many children are reaping the rewards. Playgroup WA's chief executive David Zarb notes that playgroup contributes toward children's ability to get on with other people, to relate to other people, to be comfortable, to take instruction and to not get distracted. These concepts, often related to emotional intelligence, people are now saying, are the primary thing in terms of education in the long term.
