The theme for #Playday2025 is - Spaces for Play
Today is #Playday2025, the UK’s national day for play, highlighting every child’s right to play and the importance of inclusive and accessible play spaces in their lives.
This year’s theme highlights the vital importance of accessible, inclusive spaces where children and young people have opportunities to play freely, spending time, and connecting with friends and feel valued as part of their community. Children will play anywhere and everywhere, so access to quality playful spaces and places is essential for their happiness and development, offering opportunities to boost both physical health and emotional well-being.
