Children’s Activity – Tell a Story
For thousands of years, storytellers have created and passed down stories to children. Use story parts in the handout or create something new to make up a scary, mysterious, or funny tale.

Look around your neighborhood and choose a grown-up who has lived for a long time. Maybe you could ask your parents to take you to visit someone who is housebound or lives in a retirement center. How do you think their life as a child was different from yours? Think of some questions to ask them about when they were younger. Draw pictures or write down answers they told you that you found interesting. Share what you create with them as a thank-you gift.
