Stories We Write Together | Preschool Storytelling & Writing Activity

Help kids discover why writing matters through meaningful storytelling.

In today’s tech filled world, kids don’t always get to see writing modeled in everyday life. Before they learn to write independently, they need opportunities to understand that writing is more than forming letters.

This is an open ended storytelling activity where the child becomes the storyteller and the parent or teacher becomes the writer. Kids share their ideas orally while an adult writes their words down, helping them see that their thoughts are important enough to be recorded.

This 50 page resource includes engaging story themes designed to spark imagination, conversation, and early writing awareness.

Kids learn:

✏️ Their ideas matter

✏️ Writing helps save our thoughts

✏️ Words can become stories

✏️ People write for real reasons

✏️ They can be authors of their own stories

Perfect for:

• Preschool and pre-k classrooms
• Homeschool families
• Early writing practice
• Parent child literacy activities
• Building confidence before independent writing

Use these story themes monthly, biweekly, or whenever you want to create a meaningful writing experience with your child.

Because before children learn how to write, they need to understand why writing matters.
