Hello, I’m Iona and I live in Glasgow. I love working with Licketyspit because I love to play, especially with other people. It is so great to be able to use your imagination and create whole new worlds! Hooray for play!

Hello! I’m Ruby and one of my favourite things about Licketyspit play sessions is getting to sit down with everyone together and have a good blether about the games we’ve played and the things we’ve seen! I think imaginary play is great because you can be anyone, go anywhere, do anything, and everyone will go there with you. And what could be better than exploring a jungle full of colourful birds where you might find a friendly tiger, or having a picnic on the moon with your family and friends! When I was little, I loved dressing up and making mud pies in the garden. I've worked with Licketyspit as an actor-pedagogue for 5 years and am the outgoing Children & Families Network Producer.
