Babies and toddlers in Kent and Surrey are being introduced to classical music while being allowed to roam free, thanks to two inventive mums.

The Wheels on Debussy experience has been created by Louise Knight and Fiona Sharp and is a mixture of solo performance and audience participation, with the children also given a chance to sing along to nursery rhymes.

The children are welcome to crawl, play, dance, sing and make noise throughout the shows, which have so far taken place in Tonbridge, Reigate, Ashford and Tunbridge Wells.

Meanwhile, cellist and singer Matthew Sharp will be the main performer at the opening day of the Wise Words Festival in Canterbury on 30 April.
