Play.Able aims to make play accessible to children of all abilities.
Our successful pilot project at Rainbow Centre, Margaret Drive, provided over 300 toys, resources, and interactive books for loan, fostering joyful and inclusive play experiences for over 60 families with children with special needs. While the pilot concluded in December 2023, we are actively seeking new opportunities to launch Play.Able in an accessible location for families with young children to thrive as a community.
Since March 2024, we piloted Play.Able at Queenstown Public Library, to make play more accessible for all children, especially those with
special needs. Ultimately, we hope to foster a more inclusive society, both in
terms of accessibility and societal attitudes towards children with special
needs. As the library is due for renovation, we are now preparing our space at Enabling Village and anticipate it to be officially launched in Q1 2026. Stay tuned to our social media pages for updates!
Play.Able aims to:
a. Support special needs families especially those new on the caregiving journey with curated educational materials and resources that align with their child's developmental milestones;
b. Foster a safe, judgment-free space where children can connect and develop their social skills through engaging play opportunities with their peers;
c. Support special needs families with inclusive play activities, family outings, community bonding events and informative workshops (for those on our membership);
We offer additional support to families with children on the waiting list/enrolled in EIPIC programs or MOE special education schools (over 2 years old). Through our Play.Able membership, we connect families with inclusive play activities, family outings and informative workshops that foster community and learning.
