At Central Kids Mercury Bay Kindergarten in Whitianga, we believe the environment is the third teacher and what better summertime provocation than a garden hose!

We love seeing the interactions that the children have around water play. Water play releases energy, it can be both invigorating or relaxing and calming for young children. It also encourages group and role play as well as crucial social skills like cooperation and sharing.

All children can take part in and enjoy water play!
