Course Info

In this training, you will discover how to get the most reluctant young readers reading and writers writing, without you tearing your hair out or using bribery.

During the first phase of lockdown, many parents discovered just how “switched off” learning their children were, and how difficult it could be to motivate your child to complete a task without getting bored. 

It was in this climate I created the “Young Authors, Big Ideas” writing challenge to support parents and motivate children.  The idea was to go from a black piece of paper to a publishable story in just seven days!

And that is what we achieved! But even more exciting is that these young authors have collaborated with me personally in writing “Lollipops and Rainbows” – a literacy teaching resource for parents and educators which is available for purchase soon.

There are seven hours’ of training and a downloadable workbook to help you
