Importance of Storytelling Skills
Storytelling skills are great tools for learning and development. They can help create empathy, increase brain development, and build on social, communication and interpersonal skills. Storytelling encourages creative thinking and problem-solving abilities. And, they are pretty easy to incorporate into everyday life!
Read Together
Reading stories together is a great way to build vocabulary, stimulate imagination and improve communication skills. It is a wonderful bonding experience and it teaches children the very basics of storytelling.
