The children had so much!!
They were able to not only listen to the stories but take part and help make the sound effects as well. There were lots of laughs and a great appreciation for the puppets. It was a very interactive literacy event and the children were all asking when he would come back to visit.
Thank you Big Joe for sharing your stories with us!!!
Reading books and telling stories aloud to children stimulates their imagination and expands their understanding of the world. It helps them develop language and listening skills. They pick up correct word pronunciation, word usage, and proper grammar. It also helps to prepare them to understand the written word.
