Playgroups aren't just for the little ones! For parents, grandparents and childminders they are a godsend. Get out of the house, have a cuppa and an adult conversation. Most playgroups are drop ins and don't require booking, but call first just in case if it's your first time and get there early as they tend to fill up quickly. And all are generally closed during term time and holidays.

There's tons of playgroups all over Dublin and this is by no means an exhaustive list, it's really just a start. If there's a playgroup in your area please contact me and I'll include it on the site.
