Chris Corcoran, presenter of CBeebies' Doodle Do will be joining us for a live webchat on Mumsnet on Friday between 1-2pm.

And, lovely chap that he is, he's recorded a special pre-webchat video for you to watch - see below.

To celebrate Children's Art Week (6-12 July), Chris has joined forces with Haliborange to host a series of exclusive creative master classes for its newly launched Shiny School. Chris has created three imaginative tutorials for Haliborange Shiny School, designed to suit ages 4-6, 7-9 and 10-12 years and needing no specialised or expensive equipment. The site gives parents ideas and tips on how to have fun and learn something new as a family, and also provides nutritional advice.

Chris is happy to answer all your questions (within reason!) during this sponsored chat, and will also be giving some creative inspiration for things to do with your children over the summer holidays.

If you can't make it on the day, please feel free to post your advance questions here.

ChrisCorcoranIsMyPimp · 10/07/2009 14:00

I met the wife of a Chuckle Brother once. I gave her a helpline number in case she couldn't get out.

ChrisCorcoran · 10/07/2009 14:01

Dumbledoresgirl · 10/07/2009 14:02

Chris! What's your phone number? Don't worry, you can contact me privately by clicking on the little envelope by my name. I won't give it out to anyone else.

SoupDragon · 10/07/2009 14:02

Do you have any crafty tips for turning a middle aged actuary into a fairly good copy of your good self?

caeoli · 10/07/2009 14:02

def never say never as you were(&undoubtedly still are lol)fab. i have to admit to loving the programme & sitting down to watch rather than doing the dishes or something equally fascinating. all mumsnetters should petition the merchandisers. all together now...............

Washersaurus · 10/07/2009 14:03

So can I just feed my children haliborange tablets instead of proper food? I could then spend time with them crafting the packaging into something amazing.....

morningpaper · 10/07/2009 14:03

Cappuccino: That watercolour cathedral is a bit depressing isn't it?

KorkeysFanClub · 10/07/2009 14:03

YEAH!!!!! Finally.

KFC - now I sound like chicken! lol

Dumbledoresgirl · 10/07/2009 14:03

Just heard on Radio 2: the Royal Family are now on Twitter. So what's your excuse Chris?

Cappuccino · 10/07/2009 14:04

Yes. MP Yes. It is tragic.

morningpaper · 10/07/2009 14:04

SoupDragon: see my previous tips about socks and small jeans. And only looking from below the desk

I will try this on my husband after I have got him out of the leather jacket and speedos (it's been a BUSY week)
