"Tell me a Story" is a fun, participatory workshop for adults who want to learn how to tell stories to (and with) children.
Are your children or grandchildren hungry for stories? Are you tired of reading the same books over and over? Are you looking for some new ideas for how to initiate creative, story-based play with young children? This workshop will introduce story games, how to improvise with others, and techniques for how to take a written story and tell your own version. These tools will help you enjoy co-creating stories with the young children in your life.
