NeuroKIND Wildlings group

NeuroKIND Wildlings

NeuroKIND Wildlings

An energetic afterschool social group for neurodivergent kids, held outdoors at rotating parks every Tuesday afternoon.

NeuroKIND Wildlings

NeuroKIND Wildlings is a free outdoor social group for neurodivergent kids aged 3-12.

We meet every Tuesday from 4-6pm at alternating parks across the Mornington Peninsula and Frankston areas, giving kids a chance to connect, play, and be themselves in a welcoming, low-pressure environment.

Our facilitators are neurodivergent themselves and understand the unique needs of neurodivergent children. We keep things flexible, sensory-friendly, and fun.

We always have card games and quiet activities on hand for kids who need a break from the action - there's no pressure to keep moving.

About the parks

We rotate between two great parks, both packed with things for kids to explore.

🧺

Make an evening of it

Term 4 evenings are long and light - perfect for staying a little longer after the session wraps up. Grab a spot on the grass, spread out a picnic blanket, and have dinner at the park. We provide a free sausage sizzle during Term 4, or you're welcome to bring your own food.

🎮

Gotta catch 'em all

Both parks have plenty of Pokestops and Pokemon Gyms nearby, making Wildlings a great opportunity for kids and parents to catch some Pokemon while they're at it. Don't forget to bring your phone charged up!

Carrum Downs

A fantastic all-ages park with something for every kid. Whether yours wants to zoom down the flying fox, splash in the water play area, dig in the sandpit, or take on the rock climbing wall, there's plenty to keep them busy for the full two hours.

Dunns Road Reserve

Mount Martha

A beautiful reserve with a nature-play feel. Kids love the tractor cubby, the climbing structures, and the wide open grassy areas. It's a quieter, more spread-out space that works really well for kids who need room to roam.
