Here The Beckies talk with Trisha Lee all about the power of storytelling, music and poetry with children

Trisha is the founder of Make Believe Arts Charity- she has a wealth of knowledge around children's learning and the benefits of storytelling. She worked alongside the wonderful Vivian Gussin Paley - researching storytelling and acting.  We discover how from this friendship and collaboration Helicopter stories were created. Helicopter stories can boost children's communication skills through storytelling & poetry. The most educationally, connected  powerful way to work with children is to observe and listen to all their communication. We explore how a story could be one word and how we can treasure this. This can be such a boost for every child, every child is involved. Education is individual for all children and we love the way this approach captures this is fabulous. To find out more about Helicopter Stories  & Poetry Baskets, head to helicopterstories on Instagram Websites: helicopterstories.co.uk  makebelievearts.co.uk  Head to  www.thrivinglanguage.co.uk to discover more with The Beckies.Training for educators, key note speakers and workshops, one to one sessions for speech language and communication  play sessions for children and families.Publications Routledge:Speech Language and Communication in the Early YearsSpeech Language and Communication for Healthy Little MindsEmail [email protected] you for listening and being part of this awesome Thriving community who empower all children to be understood. Love The Beckies
