Making Friends with Bo Solo

An educational comic  to help children learn about communication skills. 

Age range: 7 and upwards 

The five stories focus on different aspects of communication – sharing air time, listening, opinions, and describing.  Originally produced for BT Education they no longer make it available online, teachers, parents and people working with children have asked me to provide it and so I’ve made it available here. When published in 2005 it was printed in the hundreds of thousands.

From Caveman to Spaceman

The history of communication in 4 chapters. This resource is particularly useful for children who find communicating difficult. Originally an interactive resource created for BT Education, I converted the series to videos so that the Flash plug-in would no longer be required – as it is often a barrier.

Age range: 7 and upwards. The history of communication in 4 chapters. 

Bailey Bear’s Listening Walks
