Welcome to the Sitges Playgroup...

Sitges Playgroup is the only place in Sitges where you can "stay and play" with your child in a safe and stimulating environment.

Playgroup is an international members-only group. We currently have around 40 members representing (over the years) some 25 countries! The language of Playgroup is English but the majority of members speak Spanish too.

We are a non-profit making organisation run purely by volunteers: the mums and dads that you will meet!

Membership/Volunteers - click here for more details

As a member you become part of a non-profit organisation. We are all mums (and a few dads) with at least one child, so in order for Playgroup to run smoothly everyone has a 'task', whether it's being part of the Committee (required under Spanish law), keeping the notice boards up to date or opening a session each week. 

History

Playgroup was started in September 1999, in the back of a local bar. By October 2001 Playgroup had outgrown the bar and was moved to it's current location and became a non-profit making organisation.

About Us

The toys meet all the needs of children up to four years of age and all levels of development. Please feel free to explore the toy boxes as well! There are soft mats for jumping and rolling on or for just sitting and reading. There are bikes to ride on, pushchairs for playing at being mum or for helping with those first steps. We have lacing toys, puzzles and building bricks to help practice eye to hand co-ordination. 

A typical Playgroup session follows this pattern:

  • Free playtime on arrival 

  • An art activity - we might make a Father's Day card, follow a theme for the month or simply play with Playdough

  • Snack time - the children sit down for a biscuit and/or fruit and a drink.

  • Tidy Up time

  • Music time - everyone’s favourite. The children really enjoy shaking bells, banging on drums and dancing around to well-known nursery rhymes. 

Baby Group

This is only intended for small babies from 0 – 1 year old (or until you baby is walking). If you have an older sibling too please come to a normal playgroup session.

Birthday Parties & Other Activities

In summer we meet at the beach or Terra Mar Park and have other sessions for older children. We hold fund raising activities including a Summer Fair, a Halloween Extravaganza and a Christmas Bazaar. At various times of the year there are also book fairs and clothes sales. All the money raised goes towards maintaining Playgroup, paying for rent, buying new equipment... These are times when everyone participates to make the event a success. They are always a big family occasion and an opportunity for our spouses or partners to meet each other too.

Playgroup is available for rent for your child's birthday. (Please contact us for prices.) It's the perfect space for a party and when you get home your house looks just like you left it!! 

 

If you have any questions before coming along to meet us at Playgroup please feel free to call  or email info@sitgesplaygroup.com - we look forward to seeing you at Playgroup.
