F
irst of all, let me introduce myself. My name’s Barbara and I’m the new editor of the Basingstoke, Rushmoor and MidHart issue of the Family Grapevine. I’m really enjoying this new opportunity and would love to hear from you with any comments or suggestions for what you would like to see in the magazine. Well, we’re starting the run-up to Christmas and I know my kids, along with all others, are getting very excited, but it can be a very busy time for parents. There’s lots going on in this area though, so if you’re looking for inspiration to keep the kids occupied, have a look at our events listings. If you know of an event which is not included let me know and I’ll put it on the website. As usual, the magazine is full of useful listings and some really valuable vouchers – every little helps in these tough times. Please tell me if you know a local business which is missing – listings are free to include. Also if you run a business and would like some local promotion, get in touch and discuss the options. On a serious note, I know how difficult and frustrating it can be to have a child who has trouble communicating for whatever reason.

In this issue, we have a special feature detailing the work done by the I CAN charity and promoting their Chatterbox Challenge. I hope you enjoy this and find it helpful. As a Christmas treat, we have no less than four competitions for you in this issue – for family tickets to see the pantomimes at Fleet or Aldershot, for family tickets to the ever-popular Marwell Zoo and for a post-Christmas wind-down, a night away for Mum and Dad at the wonderful, elegant Tylney Hall Hotel. Why not enter them all? Anyway have a great Christmas and New Year - try to enjoy it without getting stressed. Our next issue will be out in March, hopefully Spring will be here by then.

I CAN’S CHATTERBOX CHALLENGE IS BACK!
Tick Tock
Did you know that there’s a golden age for learning to talk – before a child is 5 ½ years old? Singing songs together and learning rhymes and actions is a great way to help children develop vital communication skills. This is why I CAN, the children’s communication charity, has launched the annual Chatterbox Challenge sing-along based on songs, noises and even silence. With sponsorship from Openreach and TTS, and the support of Humf from the Nick Jr.TV show, I CAN are calling on parents and carers to encourage their child’s early years setting to get involved. Sounds like fun with Humf develops the communication skills of children under 5 through songs and rhymes in early years settings across the UK. Children are sponsored to perform in front of families and carers and the majority of events will be held in Chatterbox Challenge Week from 10-16th February 2014.
