As you softly blow, the story tree will grow, softly, gently, softly, slow, give it a wave and say ‘hello’!
Step into the magical rainbow forest where Tara, on her birthday, discovers something extraordinary, a brand new tree, unlike any the villagers have seen before. As the tree grows taller and stranger, with knotted branches, whispering leaves and an eerie shadow, the frightened animals hatch wild plans to destroy it. But while others see danger, Tara sees sadness, and with kindness, courage, and a tickle of laughter, she helps the mysterious tree reveal its true self.
In this enchanting literacy workshop, children join Tara’s adventure through movement, mime, and interactive storytelling. Together, they explore themes of empathy, problem-solving, and the power of kindness to transform fear into friendship. By the end of the story, the magical tree becomes the Story Tree, a guardian of tales and Tara becomes the first Story Tickler, tasked with helping its golden branches share stories with the world.
This uplifting, imaginative session celebrates creativity, resilience, and the magic of stories themselves. Children will leave inspired to see the best in others, embrace their own storytelling voices, and believe in the power of kindness to change everything.
Book this storytelling workshop at any time of the year, or for Book Weeks, World Book Day or just a creative treat!
Each storytelling session is 45 minutes long for a class of 30 children. We can work with up to 5 classes over a day for children in Nursery or Reception.
