Help your child to develop their Storytelling skills!

Today is International Literacy Day.

Literacy gives people greater choice, independence and access to opportunity. Yet 739 million young people and adults worldwide still lack basic literacy skills.

At Peeple, we know that the foundations of literacy develop long before children can read or write. Talking, singing, sharing books and telling stories all help children build their listening, communication and language skills.

Children can often ‘talk’ a story before they can read or write one. Try using a familiar or favourite story as the starting point for making up a new story together. It’s a simple, enjoyable way to encourage conversation and imagination.

It's Ask About Asthma week!

Here are our 4 asks:

1. Does your child have an asthma action plan? - if not please contact your GP Practice or Asthma nurse to get one.

2. Do you and your child know how to use their inhaler? correct technique is one of the most important things you can do to keep your child well.

3. Attend an annual asthma review - your child should be having an asthma review once a year and after every attack, this will help them to manage their symptoms.

4. Air Pollution and its impact - Air Pollution can trigger asthma but knowing the triggers can help you to manage them. What could you do differently to reduce air pollution in your area?
