🌿 Why families choose Wild Little Minds
Wild Little Minds is registered through Playgroup SA. Our sessions are facilitated by a qualified Education Support Worker with a current Working with Children Check (WWCC), RRHAN-EC training and public liability insurance.
We are committed to providing a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment where children and families can explore, create and connect through nature-inspired play.
👶 Suitable for
Wild Little Minds is designed with children aged 18 months - 5 years in mind, however younger toddlers are welcome with close parent supervision.
To help make our sessions more affordable for families, children under 18 months can attend free when accompanying a paying sibling.
As some activities include small loose parts, an adult must remain with their child throughout the session to support safe exploration.

💧 Creek & Water Safety
Our playgroup will be held alongside the beautiful creek at Carisbrooke Park.
Families are welcome to explore the creek with their little ones if they wish, depending on the weather, water conditions and accessibility on the day.
Creek exploration is completely optional and separate from our Wild Little Minds play activities.
As with all water play, we ask that parents and caregivers use their own judgement, remain close to their children and provide constant, active supervision.
Please be mindful of slippery rocks, uneven ground and changing water conditions.
We want everyone to enjoy a beautiful morning outdoors while keeping our little ones safe. 🤎
❤️ A Few Important Notes
Parents and caregivers are encouraged to stay, play and explore alongside their little ones, while providing supervision throughout the session.
Some activities include small loose parts, so please keep a close eye on younger children.
Our sensory materials are taste-safe where possible but are not intended for eating.
Please let us know of any allergies, medical conditions or additional support needs when booking so we can help make the experience enjoyable for everyone.
As we're playing outdoors, please be mindful of uneven ground, insects and other natural elements.
Our sessions are weather-dependent. If conditions aren't suitable for outdoor play, we may need to reschedule or cancel. Families will be notified using their booking details.
Let's care for the beautiful space we're sharing by respecting nature and taking our rubbish home.
📸 Photography
We love capturing little moments of play to share with our community. We only photograph little hands, backs of heads and moments of play, without showing children's faces. Please let us know if you'd prefer your child not to be photographed. 🤎
We can't wait to welcome your family for a beautiful morning of nature-inspired play, creativity and connection. 🤎
