Welcome to the Armchair Adventures Travel Agency – Journeys Of The Imagination! In this episode, Connie and the gang take a magical trip to the past to learn about building confidence from their new friend Kanti.
“Sometimes when we face challenges that we’re the most afraid of, it’s the most fun and rewarding!”
🏏💛🎤
Connie has been invited to speak about Armchair Adventures at the Junior Presentation Championships, but she’s too shy to say yes. Her new friend Kanti understands exactly how she feels, but Connie can’t quite believe it – he seems so confident!
Join Connie and the gang as they take a magical trip to learn about building confidence from their new friend Kanti.
“People don’t have to be born confident, but if you’re prepared then you can feel confident!!”
🙌🏏🎤
Our Armchair Adventure continues! Chief adventurer Connie has travelled to the future where she’s giving a speech at the Junior Presentation Championships. The trouble is, she’s not at all ready so it hasn’t gone too well!
In this episode, Connie joins a community theatre company to create a new theatre show to help her learn about mental health illness.
“When people are poorly with their mental health they quite often appear one way to people on the outside, but inside their head they are experiencing very different thoughts and feelings.”
Join Connie and the gang in Part 2 of ‘Inside Nanna’s Head Adventure’ where they continue their journey to understand more about mental health.
“It’s important to ask people what they want when they are not feeling well, Connie and it’s important to listen to them.”
“It’s a really good feeling knowing someone will be making more memories, like the ones you made.”
🧸🪞💛
Connie and the gang are at Willow Wood charity shop with their new friend Denise, who works in the shop. They’ve brought bags and bags of things to donate to a good cause – but Connie isn’t sure about letting go.
When the magic mirror starts to show Connie how happy her old things could make other people, will she have a change of heart?
“You never know what you’re going to get! This could be our lucky day!”
Connie and the gang join our competition-winning new friend Denise on a magical adventure in a charity shop!
Connie has never been to a charity shop before, so our new friend Denise can’t wait to show her what she’s missing!
“Scoop up a handful of baubles and let’s funky turkey them all over that tree!”
Connie is visiting Father Christmas in Lapland, so the gang want to decorate Armchair Adventures Head Quarters as a surprise for when she gets home. There’s a problem though, Connie has left Uncle Chris in charge and he can’t stand Christmas!
Find out why Uncle Chris lost his Christmas spirit, and whether the gang and all you adventurers can help him to rediscover it, with plenty of drama game fun in true Uncle Chris style!
In a pantomime everything and everyone ends up happy. I love that!”
Connie is off to a pantomime with school, but she’s never seen one before so she doesn’t know what to expect. She sets Uncle Chris and Year 3 at Arlies Primary School a very important assignment – they need to find out what ingredients make up a proper good panto!
“In the forces we do almost everything as a team, which really helps to get the job done and reduce feelings of stress at the same time.”
Connie has been feeling a bit stressed out. There’s loads to do behind the scenes to make an Armchair Adventures episode and she has been tackling it all alone.
“It’s important to stay calm and together, and encourage each other.”
It’s crunch time at Armchair Adventures Head Quarters!
Made By Mortals – the company who help Connie and her customers produce Armchair Adventures – need the next episode ready and pronto. However, the builders have rocked up, so everybody needs to squeeze into the broom cupboard to crack on with all the behind-the-scenes jobs. It’s chaos!
“But the thing is, we’ll be traveling through the world of poems. So as soon as we land in a poem, we won’t be able to come back until you’ve written your own!”
Welcome to series three of Armchair Adventures. Yes, that’s right – Connie and the gang are back! You’ll visit so many exciting places adventurers, and it all kicks off with part one of A Poetry Adventure!
Join us for part two of A Poetry Adventure! Connie is struggling with her homework – she has to write a poem but she doesn’t know where to start. Luckily, our resident poet Pauline and the rest of the gang are on a mission to help her. In part one they took her on a journey into their favourite poems to show her how it’s done.
Now it’s Connie’s turn to put pen to paper. It’s the only way for her to leave the world of poetry and get back home in time to hand in her homework! Will Connie do it, listen to fun out…
“Ahhh, this is the life eh! Sitting on the beach, suntanning by the sea…” 🏖️ Join Uncle Chris and Connie as they near the end of their summer holidays, ready for another action packed, imagination fuelled series of Armchair Adventures.
