Children love
stories. They enjoy the story time especially at night; they used to listen stories
from their grandparents. Stories create
magical atmosphere. Stories teach us about life and its’ experiences. Story
could be anything Fictitious or Non-Fictitious. Storytelling should be in a
unique way for children to develop their understanding, respect, curiosity and
appreciation for other cultures, and promote a positive attitude to people from
different lands and religions.
Storytelling
is very interactive. As a story progresses, children ask so many questions. Story
creates curiosity in them. This is the best learning activity. A child's memory
capacity is enhanced when they asked to remember something from a story. We
should encourage children to create a small story with the characters they have
been told about. This enhances imagination power and encourages the child’s active
participation.
Storytelling
helps to develop emotions and feelings in a child. It helps to increase verbal
proficiency and also encourage the imagination power and creativity.
Between Stories
and television, children show more involvement in story rather than watching
TV. A storyteller’s should narrate the story in such a way that it should look
real when a child is listening to story. He/ She can take the active
participation in that story with enthusiasm.
Storytelling
is very important for a child’s development. Don’t let your child miss this
simple important part of childhood. Enjoy storytelling!
