How iPlay was put together to celebrate Nickelodeon’s 8th Annual Worldwide Day of Play and the commitment to ensuring that all kids have access to play. Share their stories of achievement and use them as resources with other families, teachers, camp counselors, or anyone in the community who might be interested in learning about how kids with special needs play.
We hope you will join us on September 24, 2011, to participate in or host your own Worldwide Day of Play event! Events can and should be inclusive and encourage cross-ability participation. Hosting your own event is easy—it’s one big playdate!
Now in its 8th year, Worldwide Day of Play is an entire day dedicated to active play. On Worldwide Day of Play, Nickelodeon goes completely “dark” for three hours, turning off programming to encourage kids to get up, get out and go play! Every year, Worldwide Day of Play is celebrated with more than 3,500 local events in all 50 states and in 13countries.
