International Day of Play

June 11

At the Centre for Children’s Happiness (CCH), we believe that play is more than fun — it’s healing, empowering, and essential. That’s why we proudly implement TeamUP — a global, evidence-based intervention (developed by War Child Holland, UNICEF Netherlands and Save the Children Netherlands) that supports children facing adversity through structured, movement-based play.

🔹 TeamUP is active in over 25 countries, helping children recover from psychosocial problems, stress, and displacement — and since 2022, CCH has brought it to life across Sri Lanka.

Over the past 4 years, we’ve:

✅ Trained over 150 skilled facilitators nationwide

✅ Reached thousands of children in children’s homes, schools, rehabilitation centers, and communities

✅ Built safe, inclusive play spaces where children can build resilience, emotional strength, and a sense of belonging

“When I play in TeamUP, I feel like I can breathe again. I feel safe,” shared a young girl from a local center.

From war zones to local classrooms, TeamUP is restoring welbeing, hope, connection, and well-being — and at CCH, we’re proud to be part of this global movement.

Let’s continue to TeamUP for every child in Sri Lanka.

Support us, join us, and always — Choose Play. Every Day.
