How Stomping in the Mud Play Group started ?    Stomping in the Mud Play Group came to me one night as I lay awake….. I was delighted that I would be looking after my little granddaughter, when my daughter returned to work in September. I knew that I would want friends for A to play with …..  Why not an outdoor play group in our back yard ? So, after many hours of hard work over the summer, with my husband, we created Stomping in the Mud play group in our side yard. I opened September 2011. After many years as an early childhood educator this was a new ‘hat’ for me to wear.  I am happy to say that as of April 2012, I have hired another ece to work with me and have a wait list.

Stomping in the Mud Play Group is a rich natural outdoor play environment where children 1 1/2 years to 5 years old will have the opportunity to play outside rain or shine. Play opportunities include a large sand pit to dig in, a mud kitchen for making mud pies, a hill to roll down, bushes to hide in, logs to climb, a chance to ‘live in the moment’, socialize with their peers, grow independently and become a self-directed individual.

Under 3 year olds – Wednesdays  9:30 – 11:30        3 – 5 year olds – Thursdays  9:30 – 11:30

$20.00 per session, snack included.  Monthly registration preferred, drop ins if available.  Parents only need to stay with their child until both are comfortable.  I am a fully qualified early childhood educator with over 30 years experience.
