Boogie Mites provides workshops for I Can national roadshows
Since 2010, Boogie Mites has been providing music sessions for I Can's Chatter Matters national roadshows, part of the Chatterbox Challenge initiative.
Jonathan Wright, I CAN's Communication Advisor, explains, "Communication skills are the vital tool for children to be able to make friends, learn and achieve their full potential. These skills need to be nurtured from birth and beyond, and these Roadshows provide parents with free information, advice and activities to help their children become confident communicators.
Families can enjoy the fun activities on offer at the roadshows to develop children's communication skills.
Boogie Mites has been an important contributor to these events, leading interactive music sessions that have engaged families in activities to support speech and communication.
I Can’s programme of roadshows culminated with an attempt in March to beak the World record for the largest number of people singing Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes! The attempt was led by Hilary Palmer from Boogie Mites. Neil Warne, I Can’s event support officer explained how Hilary’s performance was the cornerstone of the event and was crucial to the success of the day. We are still waiting to hear whether the record was broken!
