Parents can discover why their babies laugh and how to encourage their child to love reading at a series of sessions being held at a pop-up university in Willesden Green.

Scientists and experts from Birkbeck, University of London, have organised the free event as part of a range of talks and workshops based around the theme of the family from May 27- 31.

The temporary campus on Queens Parade is the UK’s first ever pop-up university.
