Each time your child/children learns a message and teaches it to someone else, give them something small (a piece of ribbon, an old button, a square of coloured paper). Get them to memorise the messages in sets of 10. Use story telling or visual clues to weave the messages together.

Please forward to any parents or teachers you think will be interested in sharing this challenge with the children they know.

We would love to have news (and photos) of how you and your children are doing with the challenge.

Stay Safe!
