New 30 Minute Show

Yamba’s Playtime is designed for pre-school children, although older children and parents also enjoy watching Yamba.  Each week, Yamba and Shari, will entertain viewers with a range of great learning activities including fun stories, dancing, exercise and special guests from in and around the community. Yamba's Playtime is sure to be an early morning favourite. Yamba’s Playtime has been on air since 1995.

Yamba's PLaytime Logo  Shari and Yamba

Yamba the Honeyant is a unique character, and his colours of red, yellow and black are the same as the colours of the Aboriginal flag.  Yamba lives in Alice Springs and his name is derived from the local Arrernte word for honeyant, “yerrampe” (ye-rrum-pa).  

Shari Larkins is the presenter of the program, and as Yamba does not speak, she has a busy time interpreting what he means.  Shari was born in Darwin, Northern Territory but grew up in Alice Springs.  She is also a descendant of the Arabuna Aboriginal peoples of South Australia. Shari's working history is in media with qualifications in broadcasting and website administration.  She loves eating bananas and her favourite colour is blue.
Shari’s best friend is Yamba.
