Bursting with fun-filled activities, playgroups allow for the children adopted from China and their families to create a social network that will last a lifetime. Here, parents and children are given the opportunity to share their stories and experiences. Playgroups help to establish a sense of Chinese culture and identity for the children. Aside from being around other children with similar backgrounds, these adopted children also have the love and support of older peers.
We’re always looking for new creative ideas for the playgroups! Please contact us if you have an idea you’d like to contribute.
