The Village Green

What is it?

The Village Green is a mini real-life world where children get the chance to role play their possible future – doctor, firefighter, barista, daycare worker, farmer, cafe owner, chef, you name it!

This pop-up play experience celebrates all the magic of creative role-playing, allowing children to try their hand at a variety of occupations, and learn more about each one along the way in a ‘village-like’ atmosphere.

The space features eight key play stations with relevant props and dress ups. These include a:

Fire station
Daycare centre
Building site
Doctor’s surgery
Cafe with an alfresco area
Kitchen
Orchard
Market stall

Key features

Bright ‘village green’ theming with green grass underfoot & wooden truss roof stalls
8 different play stations
Appropriate dress up clothes in each station
Interactive props such as pretend chickens, wooden eggs, vineyard with grapes, veggie patch, fruit tree, doctor’s equipment, shopping trolleys & prams
Two educators/supervisors to guide children & keep the areas tidy
Long central benches for parents to take a break, or enjoy a pretend meal or coffee prepared by their little chefs & baristas
Optional retailer tie ins – for example, our recent activation at Geelong Central had vouchers for parents to get a free babyccino for their little one at nearby Degani Cafe with any coffee purchase

The Village Green is an extremely flexible activation that can easily be tailored to suit your centre or space. Perhaps tie it to a themed retail event, or encourage retailers to jump on board with a special offer to encourage parents to visit their store after playtime.
