Last year I completed my Makaton Stage 1 course with Makaton Training with Heather. I use signs in most of my preschool classes now. I highly recommend Heather’s courses.

When I was asked to do a video sign for her page of course I said yes!

Happy Makaton Awareness Day!

August 2026! What a month (so far).

How are we in the last week of the school holidays already! 🤔

Always a juggling act being a self employed parent in the school holidays. Both wanting to say yes to the right opportunities and yes to quality time together as a family too.

August has been a busy blend of both! Which I’m feeling very grateful for.

Thank you to all my new and existing partnerships that have kept me busy over the summer. Intergenerational sessions, holiday club workshops, baby and toddler classes and family storytelling.

Who’s ready for September? Get in touch if you’re looking for ways to add storytelling and drama into your setting for 2026/2027! 🎭

I love taking a story from the written page and then making it my own and bringing it to life without a book and just our imaginations…

How lucky I am that this is my job. And even though it’s the summer holidays and most of my school/nursery sessions are having a break, I’ve been so lucky to continue working. Holiday clubs, preschool meet ups, Intergenerational sessions in care home. Lovely ways to bring more stories to life and keep me busy.

And there’s lots of planning underway for September and into the Autumn with more stories for more children and I’m so excited.

If you’ve been here from the start thank you for following along.

If you’re new here hello I’m Laura. Follow along for more ways in which we can weave storytelling, imagination and learning through play into our day.

⭐️ Sunday 16th August ⭐️

Olaf the Whale loved to watch children on the beach building sandcastles. 🫍

He wished he could build one but his family always said “Whales can’t build Sandcastles. Whales belong in the sea!” So when he bumped into a bucket floating in the ocean he decides to try anyway and see what happens.

Join me for a lovely adventure building sandcastles as we go! 🏰
