Start with a small idea.
Leave room for a big surprise.
Storytelling can begin with a doodle, a spoken sentence or a question at bedtime. You sit beside them. They decide what happens next.
Follow their imagination
Ask what happens next. Make room for strange ideas and unexpected turns. No need to correct every sentence.
Keep their own book
Tell it in Story Studio, review the words together, then keep the illustrated book and narration in their Passport.
CREATIVE WRITING BEGINS WITH "WHAT IF?"
A blank page can wait.
Start with a question.
What if your pet could speak for one day? What if a tree delivered letters? Use a prompt as a starting point, not a script. Your child gets to choose where the story goes.

Parents ask
Does my child need to write the story?
No. They can tell it out loud in Story Studio. You can review the words together before keeping the narrated storybook.
Are our stories public?
No. Stories stay in your private Passport unless you choose a family link or separately review and publish a story to Showcase. A family link alone never adds a story to the public gallery.
What is shared in Story Showcase?
Only the story a parent reviews and publishes: its title, words, pictures, narrated audio and a chosen public nickname. The original recording and private Passport profile are not included.
Can I remove a public story?
Yes. You can remove it from Showcase in Story Studio. Its EduTribe page turns off immediately, though search engines and people who saved it may keep copies.
