We Celebrated World Storytelling Day, with the After School Storytelling Club
The Super Sonic Celtic Guinea Pigs of Awesomeness!
Ten storytellers ranging in age from 8 to 12 years old preformed
Stories for All Ages
We have been working very hard and eating lots of popcorn while we explore the art of storytelling. We spent about 8 weeks having fun learning about story. This was the first public performance for about half of the kids who participated, the other half have been telling stories for ~ a year. We heard everything from the "Shepherd and the Wolf" to the "Coffin That Wouldn't Stop". Everyone did a fantastic job! We had about 40 in the audience. It was wonderful to have such a great turnout, of family, friends and storytime kids.
Thank you all to a job well done!
Remember Friday March 20th is World Storytelling Day, have you told someone a story today?
how exciting that you are nurturing all these budding storytellers - an important contribution to keeping our love of the oral tradition alive.
ReplyDeleteI just love how story brings people together, and builds community. It has been fun growing young storytellers as well as story listeners... you can't have one without the other. Thanks
