1. Respond to the invitation as soon as possible. Let members know if you ‘will be there’ or ‘can’t make it’. This will keep the playgroup going strong and help the host plan for the event. 2. If your child is not feeling well, skip the playgroup until when he/she is feeling better. Most parents are concerned about their little ones catching colds from others and they won't appreciate the unnecessary spreading of germs.
3. Get involved. Volunteer to provide some food or drinks. Suggest future activities, themes or locations. Reach out to as many parents as you can.
4. If your child is misbehaving, don’t ignore the bad behavior. Give the proper warnings and leave the playgroup if your warnings are not heeded.
5. Keep in mind that playgroup is for both children and their parents/caregiver. Don’t use the playgroup as a babysitting service because your attendance is essential. Sending a babysitter with your child is also a big no-no. A babysitter cannot represent you. Watch your own child very closely while having a nice conversation with a parent.
6. Don't leave right away after playgroup. Help clean up. You can also use clean up as a time to encourage your child to help.
