Sport Manawatū is marking National Play week with a pop-up play in Dannevirke next week.
Tararua co-ordinator Leah Sole said the pop-up would have a range of equipment which would encourage free play for "tamariki of all ages."
National Play week, which runs from November 15 to 19, will this year be around the theme 'Say Yes to Play'.
The theme was to encourage everyone to say yes to playing, not just during play week but every week.
Sport Manawatū is holding pop-up plays at local parks and reserves but it is also encouraging families to take advantage of play opportunities already in the community.
