Playgroup Tasmania is committed to promoting and protecting the safety and wellbeing of all children. Everyone has a role to play in keeping children safe from harm and creating child safe and child friendly communities.
Playgroup Tasmania acknowledges that we live, work and play on Aboriginal land, land of the palawa people of lutruwita (Tasmania). We pay our respects to the Tasmanian Aboriginal community, to elders past and present and to all those who continue caring for country, sharing stories and upholding rights.

Celebrate Children's Week with us — mess included!
Hobart Toy Library is celebrating Children's Week 2026 with a FREE Messy Play Day. This event is supported by the Playgroup Tasmania Children’s Week Small Grant Program
This year's Children's Week theme is “Children have the right to use their own language, celebrate their culture and practise their religion,” and we've shaped the whole day around it — celebrating culture through food, play and creativity, and making sure every child, whatever their background or ability, can take part.
What's on:
Decorate your own library bag to take home
Craft activities
Sensory play
Light refreshments included
