IRKSOME

INSIGHT

Back again, hmm? Irksome Insight is a new series of video shorts I've created for you.

A note for parent-folk.

​

Eastings provides word-led edutainment for children with a rough age range of 7-12. Through a fun and questioning approach we explore the worlds of lexicography and etymology with a focus on age-appropriate world current affairs. This is done through video shorts, and our quarterly publication; The Gripping Gazette, which is available for just £4.50 per issue! There are no third-party adverts anywhere in The Gripping Gazette, or when you watch videos directly on eastings.com. Finally, there is no AI, unless you're talking about vowels.
