Story Telling

Inspired by one of our favourite story sacks, ‘Shaun the Shy Shark’ (see Tapestry for our own rendition of it!) why not try and make your own story sacks using your favourite stories and toys from home? You could also get really creative and design some finger or hand puppets. See below for a lots of different ways to make your own:

Another story telling method is The Helicopter Technique, which Our Pre-Schoolers love to join in with. This is where the children are encouraged to write their own short stories with the help of an adult and then everyone gets to act the stories out on a stage.
