In recent years early years practitioners have found it increasingly difficult to get young children to listen. We need to put listening high on the agenda for without the ability to listen well we will always be disadvantaged as learners. The pack consists of Helping Young Children to Listen practitioners resource book and Lola the listening leopard soft toy resource.

The book contains 40 exciting and enjoyable activities designed to help young children develop listening, attentional and concentration skills.

Customer Feedback:
We have Lola (the listening leopard) - she doesn't look like she used to - she's been kissed so often. One little boy was due to have a birthday aprty and his mum came beforehand with the invitations. She asked who the new little girl was. "We haven't got a new little girl". "Well, I've got an invitation here for a Lola, my son insited she came to his party." Lola did go to the party with a birthday ribbon round her neck. His Daddy came to meet the little boy from school on his birthday, before the party, bringing him with him the little boy's birthday prsent - a new bike. But the little boy wasn't interested in the bike. All he wanted to do was carry Lola.
