Parents As Storytellers

TELLING FAMILY STORIES:

PARENTS AS STORYTELLERS

Family stories tell children where they come from and who they are. Tales about grandparents' and parents' growing-up experiences transmit family values and expectations as well as preserving history. Parents can also use made-up stories to help children deal with problems and change. Children need to hear stories told one-on-one, from the heart. This workshop will show you how.
