A playgroup for CARMBA families for ages 0-5 run out of the ACT playgroup's playrooms during school terms. Parents, grandparents and other carers/helping hands looking after the kids are all welcome along with any siblings! Multiplay is the place to come to meet other families, and to practice getting out of the house. There is always a friendly face and support on the hard days - from unsettled newborns, the terrible twos, and more rambunctious preschoolers!  Multiplay is held in the Castle room in ACT Playgroups, first door on the right as you enter the building. There is a large heated indoor play space with activities and toys for all ages and a large fenced yard with a mud kitchen, sand pit, climbing structures and more. We would love to see some new faces - please contact us if you have any questions about attending or if there is anything we can do to support you.   Important notes: - Park in the carpark at Ellis street. ACT Playgroup entrance is closest entry to the car park (not the Cook shops or Koalas playgroup!) - Please remember to help tidy the space after. There is a stick vacuum for any crumbs, and spray and wipe under the sink. Lots of groups use this play space, please help us keep it tidy for the next group!
