Chuckle Productions, Stone’s not-for-profit family learning organisation, will take a huge step forward in November with the opening of The Chuckle House at Stone Enterprise Centre.
And local people can have a look around at a special open day on 2nd November.
Founded in 2009, the principal aim of Chuckle is to promote family learning through the arts by giving a foundation to all types of child development (physical, cognitive, emotional and social) via imaginary workshops, theatre and live music. This exciting new project will considerably enhance the organisation’s ability to provide these services to a much wider group of local families. All age groups are catered for, from toddlers to teenagers.
Chuckle founder Sara Christie said: “We believe we can use music, drama, dance, art, craft and digital technology to enhance and support a child’s development from birth to adolescence whilst having lots of fun along the way.
“The opening of The Chuckle House emulates the ethos of Chuckle – we want to be able to help whoever we can, whenever we can, however we can supporting families so that their children can grow in confidence and self-worth, whether that’s exploring music, song writing or film making. With little people, supporting their developmental skills through imaginary journeys, intriguing their little minds by our explore sessions or just baking and making together are all part of the learning process.”
The Chuckle House will also become the home of Chuckle Stars, a Saturday morning project for children and young people with special needs. Supported by a team of highly experienced professionals, they will have the opportunity to explore musical theatre, art and design, providing them with a completely independent hobby.
Fellow director Jeff Reynolds said: “Whether you need literacy support and assessment for a specific learning difficulty from specialist teachers, want to have fun with your little one as you watch them grow or release your inner rock star, Chuckle has something for everyone.”
The Chuckle House – Unit 10, Stone Enterprise Centre, Emerald Way, Stone ST15 0SR – will be open on Saturday 2nd November from 11am to 3pm for families to go and see what Chuckle is all about.
