Why is storytelling so important for children?
Storytelling teaches children many valuable skills. To compose a good story, a writer must organize his or her thoughts to effectively communicate ideas. While your child is having fun exploring imaginary worlds inside Story Patch, he or she also is developing critical communication skills that will be beneficial later in life. Storytelling also challenges children to find new ways to communicate their ideas. After all, nobody wants to tell the same story over and over again! By using Story Patch, your child will learn to express ideas in different ways—and will have so much fun in the process that your child won’t realize that he or she is learning too!
