Zoe meets the first of her Tiny Happy People Families and chats to Mark Wright.

Zoe meets two of her Tiny Happy People Families and chats to Mark Wright about his new BBC fitness series. Plus there's three disco classics from her collection in the Disco Ball.

Today Tiny Happy People Families launches on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show! With an introduction JB Gill, today we are revealing and meeting two of the families taking part in the project! In collaboration with BBC Radio 2 and The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, Tiny Happy People Families launched on Monday 19th October 2020. The project’s aim is to find 5 families due to have a baby in January 2021 and to follow their journey from birth through to 5 years old. This all forms part of a wider BBC campaign called Tiny Happy People, which is a five year initiative to support parents and carers in developing the language and communication skills of their 0-4 year old children. Four out of the five families have now had their baby, with the arrival of baby number 5 expected imminently. 

Mark Wright calls in to speak to Zoe before training for Crawley Town, to tell her about his new fitness series Workout The Wright Way. The new series, has been commissioned as part of the BBC’s huge educational offering, Lockdown Learning and will see Mark lead a daily dose of energising fitness sessions on BBC Two at 8:45am to encourage teens to stay active as they are home schooling.

Between 8 am and 9 am Zoe keeps the tunes rolling on Maximum Music Monday.  And Zoe plays three disco classics from her personal collection in the Disco Ball at 8.30!

Along with Clare Runacres on news, Richie Anderson on travel and Mike Williams on sport, Zoe and the team have the best start to your morning. With celeb guests, quizzes, headlines, tunes chosen by listeners and more music that you can shake a glitterball at!

There's also a Pause For Thought from Sarah Joseph and listeners on the line as Zoe entertains the nation with fun for the family!
