Woolly hats, juggling balls and bad hair days

01/05/2014 18:34

1st May 2014

For me, Pyjama Drama involves wearing lots of hats. Let me tell why...

Once upon a working day, Lucy woke up and started replying to emails from potential customers (sparkly admin and communication hat). She then remembered she had to pay for a class venue (pointy financial hat) before meeting up with a local magazine publisher (floppy marketing hat). Later on that day, Lucy got to deliver a fantastic Pyjama Drama class for older toddlers (woolly performance hat). As you can imagine, the hats are all very cosy and nice to wear (and you can’t be afraid to have bad hat hair by the end of a day). Pyjama Drama also involves juggling. You need to master juggling everyday items with the future items. They tend to move at an incredible pace but before you know it, you’ve been juggling for FOUR MONTHS (how time flies) and still have a smile on your face!

The days are long but the years are short

26/02/2014 07:44

26th February 2013

I grew up hearing the story of the night my mum nearly threw my two month old brother out of the bedroom window after a day of non-stop crying.  We both know that she didn’t really nearly do it but the memory of that long day and fractious night is as fresh as if it were yesterday, despite it being over forty years ago. My own children aren’t babies or even toddlers anymore but being at home with children, especially when they’re young, is hard work and there are just some days that never seem to end...

Once upon a time it was National Storytelling Week

03/02/2014 18:45

3rd February 2014

Everyone knows someone who is great at telling stories. Maybe it’s Granddad who can keep the family entertained for hours at a time or your best friend who can turn a random event into a rip-roaring story that has you in fits of laughter. But how often do we think of ourselves as storytellers, even though something we do every day? From meeting a friend for coffee and telling her about our busy week to rushing home from work to tell our partners about our day, telling stories is something we instinctively do, and without even noticing.
