Tiny Happy People Families and Mark Wright
Zoe meets two of her Tiny Happy People Families and chats to Mark Wright about his new 成人快手 fitness series. Plus there's three disco classics from her collection in the Disco Ball.
Today Tiny Happy People Families launches on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show! With an introduction JB Gill, today we are revealing and meeting two of the families taking part in the project! In collaboration with 成人快手 Radio 2 and The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, Tiny Happy People Families launched on Monday 19th October 2020. The project鈥檚 aim is to find 5 families due to have a baby in January 2021 and to follow their journey from birth through to 5 years old. This all forms part of a wider 成人快手 campaign called Tiny Happy People, which is a five year initiative to support parents and carers in developing the language and communication skills of their 0-4 year old children. Four out of the five families have now had their baby, with the arrival of baby number 5 expected imminently.
Mark Wright calls in to speak to Zoe before training for Crawley Town, to tell her about his new fitness series Workout The Wright Way. The new series, has been commissioned as part of the 成人快手鈥檚 huge educational offering, Lockdown Learning and will see Mark lead a daily dose of energising fitness sessions on 成人快手 Two at 8:45am to encourage teens to stay active as they are home schooling.
Between 8 am and 9 am Zoe keeps the tunes rolling on Maximum Music Monday. And Zoe plays three disco classics from her personal collection in the Disco Ball at 8.30!
Along with Clare Runacres on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, Zoe and the team have the best start to your morning. With celeb guests, quizzes, headlines, tunes chosen by listeners and more music that you can shake a glitterball at!
There's also a Pause For Thought from Sarah Joseph and listeners on the line as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!

Pause For Thought
I know it鈥檚 all about Tiny Happy People on the show this morning.
听
It鈥檚 a long time since my three children were tiny 鈥� they鈥檙e 25, 21, and 19 now, but their tiny years is a time that I will forever treasure, and represents a truly joyous period of my life. Although at the time it was utterly exhausting!
They were a constant source of laughter. My memories of them as tiny happy people brings me a swell of happiness. But I have more than memories 鈥� I actually have their own videos. We gave them a video camera and the films they made are just wonderful. We can literally see the world through their tiny eyes. It is a world of fun, of dancing, and joy鈥� as well as them negotiating.
The video camera was all part of their home-schooling, as we home-schooled them for a number of years, until the eldest was about ten. We would do a couple of hours of work in the morning, and then let them do their thing鈥� Art, craft, building, gardening, reading, writing stories, and of course film-making.听听
People would ask 鈥� 鈥淎ren鈥檛 you worried they鈥檒l fall behind.鈥� I was never sure about that question. Fall behind who? Who are they racing against? We just tried to provide an environment where they could explore and play. It wasn鈥檛 perfect 鈥� but whenever I doubt myself I look at the videos and I see happy humans.
One thing I held to, then and now, is 鈥淭he Constant Conversation鈥�. I constantly talked to them, and never in baby language either. I constantly explained to them what I was doing 鈥� at the shops, in the house, when cooking. I would talk them through their tantrums. I remember sitting on the floor of Woolworths for about 20 minutes when one of them wanted a toy that I wouldn鈥檛 buy. When they had finished screaming 鈥� we hugged, and went home.
There is so much pressure to be the perfect parent. I certainly wasn鈥檛. It wasn鈥檛 idyllic, and nor is it now. Every stage of their lives has had ease as well as trials. But I tried to always let them know that they were loved, and to not sweat the small stuff.听
The Prophet said, 鈥淭he best of you is the one kindest to their families鈥�, and he extolled love and mercy towards children. I reckon our tiny people deserve just that.
