Chatter Matters

On wednesday to celebrate Chatter Matters Week mums, dads and children from Stratford Childrens Centre took singing, storytelling and dancing out onto the streets of Stratford. I went along with my little girl Georgia. We visited Morrisons supermarket, Cafe Nero, Shakespeare’s Birthplace and the library. The idea behind Chatter Matters Week is simple : talking, being face to face, repeating words, speaking slowly and joining in their play helps children talk. The Royal Shakespeare Company has also supported Chatter Matters Week putting on activities and workshops that encourage families to learn, play and talk together. It was great fun and a big thank you to Corrin and Alex who organised the day. Click on an image below to see the slideshow.
