Storytelling Activities For Kids

Storytelling activities help your kids connect with their creativity. The activities are all about taking an idea, developing it and creating something that is sharable. Let us check out some exciting activities for your kids.
1. Storytelling With Family Photos:
  • Encouraging your child to tell stories is as simple as asking a natural storyteller to narrate a story. Read out the ways on how you can use family pictures to encourage storytelling.
  • Glance through some pictures along with your kid and take turns narrating stories about what you find. For instance, it can be a picture of her birth or a picture that recounts a story about the night when there was a heavy snowfall.
  • You can even print some pictures of any fun occasion like a birthday celebration, family vacation or any holiday trip and ask your child to arrange the events in order.
  • Show a picture of any event and ask your little one to make a story using the clues.
  • Let your kid pick 10 or fewer pictures and place them in chronological order to create a story. It is interesting to watch what pictures they pick to narrate a story.
2. Storytelling With Stamps:
  • This activity would seriously add unlimited fun to the storywriting. Stamps are a great way to get your kids’ creativity flow, pencils move and smiles grow.
  • Firstly, you need to gather different sets of stamps – like the animal stamp set, vehicles stamp set, flower stamp set, baby zoo animals stamp set and more. Also, gather a Jumbo multi-color stamp pad and storytelling paper that is perfect for illustrating stories.
  • You can stamp out some pictures on the paper and ask your kid to write a story depicting them. They can fill the stamps with extra colors and can add details by drawing something handy in between the stampings.
  • When they go wrong, you can correct their spellings and grammar so that their skills improvise. It would be a super fun and sneaky learning along the way.
3. Be Natural:
It is important to evolve your own style of storytelling. This will ensure that it does not become monotonous for your child or for you. Enjoy what you are reading.
Storytelling is very crucial for your child’s development. Don’t let your child miss this simple yet extremely important part of childhood. Happy storytelling!
