Diversified Family Farm
magical....and what a fantastic and true post, friend. Storytelling is important and every child deserves to have it in their life. we, as the storytellers, need to relax and let the creativity flow...not think too much, not worry if they're enjoying it, if they're bored, if they need "more", etc.love to you and yours:) and what you described is a pedagogical story to a "T"! They are so effective, yes? :):):):) I was one of the older cousins so I did a lot supervising of the younger ones when our families got together. I would make up stories for the kids and get them to help me with the storyline. We are now all adults and it always surprises me when they remind me of when I would make up stories for them and how much they enjoyed it. What a great post. We are parents can feel so bombarded with ways of "doing things right", that we don't do out of fear of "doing it wrong". But as you so aptly pointed out, what we forget is that "doing things right" means going on instinct, using what we know works, and using all of those special one of a kind gifts that life as a family brings to each of us. Thank you so much for posting this.
