Beach Kindy is an Australian picture book about outdoor play, imagination and the magic of learning through new experiences.
Come with us to a place where anything is possible. Where swashbuckling sea captains and puddle-jumping champions play side by side. Where spells are cast in the sand and chefs cook seaweed soup for superheroes. Join Billie, her butterflies and her friends as they discover the amazing place that is Beach Kindy.
Written by Dannika Patterson and illustrated by Di Spediacci, this book celebrates the pure joy of learning through play in nature. It holds a strong sense of place, having been written for and set in and around Wynnum General Gordon Community Kindergarten on Brisbane's bayside. This book was created as a not-for-profit passion project to give back to that community.
Beach Kindy speaks directly to something many Australian families are actively trying to reclaim. Children today spend more time indoors than any generation before them, and this book makes the case for nature play by showing how good it looks and feels.
A joyful read-aloud for kindergartens, early learning centres, beachside and bayside families, and anyone building a collection of Australian nature-play picture books.
Themes include outdoor play, imagination, friendship, nature connection, coastal environments, early childhood education and community.
Perfect for kindy graduation gifts, educator thank-yous, and families who love Moreton Bay.
