Episode 225; Parenting Your Parents, First Aid & World Book Day

from Two New Mums · host Auddy Network

When you're reaching the age where you have to start parenting your parents. Amy's been inspired by a First Aid Course, and with World Book Day this week we're chatting to Jenny Shaw from Busy Bees about the decline of reading amongst children and how we can encourage it and build that connection.

Busy Bees is on a mission to reclaim storytime as a joyful experience that fosters a love of reading from the very beginning. Families are invited to join in, rediscovering the enjoyment of reading at home together and helping children to reach this momentous milestone.  In response to this decline, Busy Bees nurseries are embedding reading into every part of the nursery day, with children enjoying at least four stories, supported by dedicated story times and book-rich learning environments designed to nurture early literacy skills and a lifelong love of reading. The nurseries are also working closely with parents, providing practical guidance, resources, and book recommendations to help families build consistent reading habits at home.
