When teaching your children to tell stories, you should take into account some if the tips below, such as:

Create a model for them to follow. Toddlers are skilled at copying as well as telling stories. Be passionate and imaginative when telling stories to them. They will share your enthusiasm about the activity if you tell them stories that you are enthusiastic about.

Choose interesting stories. Selecting a compelling tale is one method to encourage young children to love reading and sharing stories. Regardless if it's from a picture book, choose one that has dialogue or chorus notes repeated to help the listener understand the plot.

Encourage children to tell their stories by using their hands and bodies. Children's storytelling is a sensory experience that involves their entire body, not just reading aloud words. Teach your child to portray the plot of the narrative using their hands or perhaps their entire body when you are reading them a story.

Make it a regular habit. To spend quality time sharing stories with your children, schedule time each day. Everyday storytelling exercises their memory, enabling children to take in information and dialogues more quickly, and so on.
