"Since coming to Little Explorers we spend more time doing stuff at home together, like reading or just talking and playing. My son's behaviour has really improved!"

"We loved making books together. We didn't really have books or read together but since we did this activity at home, it's opened up a whole new world for us. We've made lots of books and use the library regularly.  Reading is part of everyday now."

"Parents are comfortable in the group, they talk openly and get along with each other well."

"The teacher kept reminding me about Little Explorers. I didn't really want to go at first because I didn't know what it was about. But then after the first session my son enjoyed it so much. It's great to spend time with him in the classroom."

"The groups help parents to develop a partnership with the school and in the short term that is equally as important as a direct impact on the HLE."

"I love learning how to teach my child in different ways.  My daughter really enjoys her time at the group."

"Little Explorers has helped me build a strong relationship with parents much more quickly."

"The group has helped my daughter settle into nursery and she is far more confident now. Her speech and social skills are really coming on. It's amazing."

"The parents chose to do PSED topics, so we focused on this for the first few weeks and there is one girl in particular whose behaviour has really improved since mum started coming to groups."

"We loved the session on trying new foods. She used to be really fussy but now she comes shopping with me and we choose new fruit or veg each week. We all eat so much better now."
