I set my phone reminder yesterday to listen to BBC Radio Manchester – an interview with Joe McCullough from the BBC about the Tiny Happy People campaign on ‘The Dead Good Show’. Joe was joined by a number of people who have been involved in developing and testing resources including Michelle Morris, GM Consultant Speech and Language Therapist and one of our GM Pathways to Talking Project Leads.
It was great to hear Michelle talking about some of the research on how babies and very young children develop communication and language skills and talking about where the original research on the word gap came from.
If you haven’t heard it, its worth tuning in. Here is a link to the live recording:
