Play is a right, #ForEveryChild .

UNICEF and other stakeholders in Uganda are championing the importance of play for children's development through the first-ever #UgPlayDay .

Let's create a world where #EveryChild can laugh, learn, and grow through play!

During their first three years of life, your child’s brain develops faster than at any other time!

When children play, they explore their world and build critical skills that bring a lifetime of benefits.
