From going to a new school to going for the doctor's appointment, we prepared our minion for all the big or small events/change by telling her many stories a million times in different ways💕

.

Storytelling is not for sitting quietly, it's for bringing stories to life in a whole new way. We have grown up on stories narrated to us by our grandparents or parents. I still remember all the stories with its lessons and I am sure I am going to pass this treasure to me little one too. ♥️

Here are few tricks you can use to make the storytelling time super fun:

.

👉Make sure to be the story, I know too philosophical 😂 but try and use your whole body when you tell them stories...they will be more inclined to listen if they see you enjoying it too.

.

👉Use hand puppets/masks or just few cutouts of animals from any book/magazine (paste it on a stick so it's easy to hold). .

👉 Modulation of voice helps too. Mine gets a laughter attack eveytime I try to sound like an elephant 😂😂 though she is good at imitating as well. 😎

.

👉 Involve them in the story and let the imagination flow. Last night a zebra went for a shopping and bought a donut in our story 😝

.

👉 Use of a different language can make it more fun too and a great way to familiarise your kid with another language. I am not fluent in Kumaoni but I try to teach whatever little I know because I want her to love the language I grew up listening (mostly the scolding part because maa used it the most when guests were at our place so no one could understand apart from us 🤦😝😂)

.

.

👉 It's okay if your story is not going as per the book let the new mini writer write it the way they want to and open the world of imagination for them 💕
