Welcome to the story sack page
What is a story sack?
A story sack is a large cloth bag containing a good quality children's picture book with supporting materials to bring the story to life such as puppets, a soft toy or games to stimulate reading activities. It contains either the story character or props relating to the characters in the story.
What is the aim of a story sack?
The aim is to give the parent the confidence to enjoy books and reading together with their child, thus creating a combined learning experience. Not every parent finds reading stories easy but the supporting materials in the sack should enable them to do this with their child at a variety of levels.
What will my child learn?
- To develop a lifelong love for books
- To listen to good stories read aloud
- To talk and extend their vocabulary
- To develop social skills
- To develop their imagination
- The props will improve your child's understanding of the story
Please see below the 'Dear Zoo' story sack I put together with good quality finger puppets combined with a fantastic hardback popular children's story with an information card on how to get the most out of your story sack.....
