jainspero Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Are there any good play groups or half day nursery shcools in Chiang Mai? (not too expensive) We're moving to over for a while and I've had a look on the internet but they all see a bit full on and full time - my son's only two but i'd love him to play with other babies and get the stimulation etc he gets at the local nursery he goes to in London. Hope someone can help advise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiangmaibruce Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Are there any good play groups or half day nursery shcools in Chiang Mai? (not too expensive) I would suggest perhaps moving this to the chiang mai forum. There have been various threads in the past on this topic there so try doing a forum search with key words like "chiang mai nursery kindergarten playgroup" and see what you turn up. I believe there are very few playgroups - i don't think there is a great deal of demand for this type of service. Not so long ago a thaivisa member was trying to get a group together, but i don;t know if they succeeded or not. Some of the kindies have more of a play orientation than pre-scholl orientations, e.g. kiddy bear (for which there is a waiting list). Another alternative is "tumbletots" (google to find the tumbletots chiang mai web site) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jainspero Posted August 26, 2009 Author Share Posted August 26, 2009 hi thanks for replying! Do you have any babies or know anyone that does who i can talk to when i arrive? (October) Do you know if you have to have a resident visa to go to these. I would like to find one that's just casual (not like a strict school) so that sounds good) Many thanks jain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
earlofwindermere Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 There are MANY in Chiang Mai. It would be best to know the age of your kids as well as where you plan to live in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggest you search for those threads I mentioned and try to identify/contact the Chiang Mai TV member who was trying to organise a playgroup (and perhaps others who posted in that thread. Also looks like EarlofWindermere would have some useful leads. I very much doubt a visa will be required/asked for. - CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope someone can help advise! Little Stars Bilingual Nursery & Preschool is great and they don't mind if you put your little one in for half days or only a few days/week.
