Playday is the national day for play, celebrated each year across the UK. Playday 2024 will be celebrated on Wednesday 7 August.
The theme for this year’s Playday is …
Play – the culture of childhood
Supporting play, fun and friendships
This year’s theme celebrates the rich and lively culture of children’s play. Every child plays – playfulness is a distinct feature of behavior across generations and cultures. Playing generates a culture of childhood.
Playing is vital for children’s health, happiness, and creativity. Through play:
· children develop a sense of, and value for culture
· cultural exploration is encouraged, fostering an appreciation for diversity
· children work together, negotiate, and build relationships.
· children feel connected to each other and their neighborhoods
· children create and pass on games, songs and stories.
Play is every child’s right – on Playday and every day
