International Day of Inclusive Play
Celebrate International Day of Inclusive Play with My PlayClub!
Join us for a FREE beach-themed playdate at Glen Alla Playground in Marina Del Rey, where children of ALL abilities can play, connect, and belong together in a welcoming and inclusive environment.
The International Day of Play is an official United Nations observance held annually on June 11 to recognize play as a fundamental human right and raise awareness about its essential role in children’s development, well-being, and lifelong learning. Established by the United Nations in 2024, the day serves as a global call to action to protect every child’s right to play—especially as safe spaces for play continue to shrink worldwide.
As an organization with Consultative Status with the United Nations, Inclusion Matters by Shane’s Inspiration is proud to celebrate this important movement by creating our own International Day of Inclusive Play—a community celebration dedicated to ensuring that children of all abilities can play, learn, and grow side by side.
In addition to free play at our fully accessible playground, families can enjoy activities that encourage creativity, movement, teamwork, and connection, including:
- Sand Castle Building Station
- Water Balloon Toss and Sponge Relay Games
- Beach Scavenger Hunt
- Music and Dancing
- Face Painting & Temporary Tattoos
- Sensory Friendly Book Nook
- Buddy Play
- Snacks and Drinks
Children of ALL abilities and ages are welcome!
A special thank you to Crowe LLP for sponsoring this event and volunteering as buddies and activity helpers throughout the day!
We can’t wait to celebrate the power of play and inclusion with our community!
