This video shows how you can gather various items, Story Studio Stuff, from your home to create. Stories can be retells of the story you just read or experience that you just had, or they can be inspired by them.

The Story Studio stuff found around the home could be game pieces (think Jenga board, scrabble tiles, dice) or costume jewelry and scarves, any small toys (think lego, cars, toy people, stuffed toys) random things (cotton balls, forks), collections (rocks, shells), crafting materials (beads, toilet paper rolls) or anything you can imagine.

This video shows one way of sharing your story. This is a video recording of my story. Other ways to share are to simply tell someone your story, to draw a picture of your story and then label it, or to write the story. You can share your story by painting, drawing, sculpting, or using your imagination to share it creatively.

This is one way to share a story using a read aloud as an inspire. If you are looking for more read alouds to use to Inspire your children there are some great sites to choose from through this link .
