Parents and children having fun together

A short video explaining why parents really do make the difference in their child's learning.

"I think it's really good.  I don't get out much without my husband... so it's nice to have an hour away with [my daughter] and with her friends and other mums and dads."

"I encourage my child to express himself while playing, reading, art, choosing food whilst out and about.  I have a much better understanding of how he learns."

"We read more together. I get him more involved in helping around the house.  I point things out more when we're out and about."

"I've learned to have a lot more patience with all of my children and I get them involved with preparing and making meals a lot more."

"I love the groups.  It makes me feel a bit more confident.  Sometimes you feel that they are not learning at home but, you know, they really are."

"I love being involved with her learning because I think it makes her a lot happier as well.  If the teachers are doing it in school and we are doing it at home, then she is going to find that easier."

Not currently running due to Covid19

Weekly sessions are delivered in schools and nurseries across Wirral, led by their staff, who have been trained by FYT.  If your child attends one of these schools or nurseries, speak to your teacher for more details.

Sessions include talk time, story and song time.  Talk time gives parents an opportunity to discuss an area of learning and development and take away ideas of how to support this further at home with their child.
