Theatre festival for early years

Early Years
Early years professionals from across England will be attending an international theatre festival for under-fives this month, to learn more about the role of the arts in early learning.

Take Off festival will take place in Darlington from this week. Theatre groups from all over Europe will entertain professionals and children.

Frances Osbourne, a childcare consultant planning to attend, said: "The arts can really enrich early years development but they often don't get much of a look in. Events like this can give early years professionals some good ideas.
