Mission 500
Mission 500 is Stylo and Stories’ scalable early-years engagement programme, created to help organisations deliver meaningful literacy, creativity and family learning through one efficient partnership.
Through a single commission, partners can enable up to 500 children aged 2–5 to take part in engaging Little Echo experiences combining storytelling, music, movement, memory and imaginative play; and take home a copy of Little Echo.
Designed for delivery across schools, nurseries, libraries, museums, family hubs and community venues, Mission 500 supports wider goals around early-years literacy, reading for pleasure and access to high-quality funded learning experiences.
INSIDE THE LITTE ECHO EXPERIENCE
1. Welcome & Sing Along To Spark our Memory
Children join in with the Little Echo song and explore how rhythm, repetition and music can help us remember.
2. Little Echo Book Reading
An animated reading of Little Echo, with children encouraged to listen, respond and join in.
3. Little Echo Hide & Seek
A playful search activity inspired by the story, encouraging observation, recall and participation.
4. Little Illustrators Drawing Session
Children draw something they remember from the story, without looking back at the book.
5. Children’s Storytelling Show & Tell
Children share their drawings and tell the group what they remembered, encouraging confidence, imagination and communication.
6. 500 Copies of Little Echo
Each child will walk home with a copy of Little Echo to take home and spark their imagination
7. 500 Colouring books
Each child will be gifted with a special Little Echo and friends colouring book to spark their creativity and memory
8. Impact & Outcomes Reporting
At the end of the 11-month programme, partners receive a concise impact report capturing reach, participation, delivery locations, engagement and learning outcomes across the programme. The report is designed to help you evidence the value of your investment, understand how families engaged with the programme and inform future early-years, literacy and family engagement activity.
