Yes, you can be a story-teller. Stop saying you can’t! Everyone and anyone can tell a good story. Look at your child’s favorite toy, put that toy in a baseball game and you’re off. Or think of something funny that happened to you earlier in the day, change yourself out for a talking dog or alien or whatever you want, and re-tell the story!
Check out this article for more ideas on sharing interactive story-telling time with young ones.
Most of all, remember that it’s not at all about the “quality” of the story or the “strength of your imagination”. The point is simply to sit with someone special, be unplugged, and have fun making stuff up!
Happy Story-Telling!
