Story Play
Stories play a vital role in a child's development. Listening to stories exposes children to new vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structures, which can improve their oral and written communication skills. Stories can also help children develop their listening skills, as they learn to follow a narrative and understand complex concepts. They also help children develop social-emotional skills and support cognitive development by stimulating a child's imagination and creativity.
Sharing stories, whether through story reading or storytelling, is an essential component of early childhood education. But it doesn’t only have to be a one-way teacher-led activity. By telling interactive stories, playing story games and improvising stories together, it becomes a collaborative process in which the children are empowered as story creators.
In this highly practical workshop, you will learn some tried and tested story games and activities that will be fun for you, and both fun and beneficial for your children. You will also learn two easy to tell interactive stories that your children will love. Come prepared to have fun!
