The playgroup is a group of industrial design students from a variety of year levels who come together to use techniques to explore problem solving, such as being creative, discussion and of course playing games. This blog is where we can continue our discussions and post up new ideas or simply just question things.

Balderdash, now that's a great word

Last Friday afternoon a playgroup was held. I'd like to thank Haley for bringing "ABSOLUTE BALDERDASH" Can't say it's a game I've played before, but it was fun and interesting seeing how other people went about answering questions for this absurd game.
2 thumbs up Hales

I am glad everybody liked it as much as I did thanks for coming along. I might bring it again some time then. What do people say to playgroup this Friday?

Ok I’ll bring in the game tomorrow so all can play!

Well even though not too many people have said anything we shall have playgroup tomorrow… Hopefully people turn up otherwise it will be entertaining watching me play by myself. The more people that come the better so hope to see you there. I think that maybe a brief idea or something fun is needed to kick start playgroup each week we'll see how a slightly planned playgroup goes.

whats next... a game!

Well it seems that everyone has being quite busy, or there wasn’t enough time to view the last playgroup post as only Ben made it to the playgroup on the lawn. People are wanting to know what we are going to do so I hope no one minds if I make the next decision, I will bring in one of the games at home that I see as being creative and fun, we will hold it in the student lounge, as there are a lot of cards involved in the game and I don’t want to lose them, (plus I got sunburnt last Friday.)

The purpose of the game is to just get us thinking in a relaxing way so come along if you can, not sure if it should be this Friday or leave it to the next depending on how many comments of people coming, I will decide later in the week. The time will be the same time 12.30-2.30, and you can bring along your lunch cause we can eat and play at the same time.

But you should just try to do it when you can get the most people there.

Playgroup going mobile.

Ok so it seems that Friday is ok for most people to hold playgroup, and we have decided that since our room is being used by a class that it’s time to go mobile…Starting with the State Library lawns for this Friday. We (as in 2nd years) still have a two hour break between studies class and lecture so that should be enough time. I think that we’ll used the student lounge as a meeting spot only if there are new people wanting to join and might not recognise us. So bring along your lunch and we’ll see you on the lawn.

Hey guys, no playgroup for methis friday, I'll be going to the Zoo.
I like the sound of mobile playgroup.
