Fi Glover and guests celebrate Christmas reflecting on a lively range of conversations between children, and between adults and children. Special guests: Greg James, Radio 1 breakfast host and co-author of the highly successful Kid Normal books ; and writer and child psychologist Tim Gill.

The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation with someone close to them about a subject they've never discussed intimately before. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation - they're not 91Èȱ¬ interviews, and that's an important difference - lasts up to an hour, and is then edited to extract the key moment of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in the second decade of the millennium.
