We’re Bags Of Fun!
Storysacks® are a cloth bag full of wonderful resources to encourage children and parents to enjoy reading together. Each sack is based around a picture story book with a supporting fact book on a similar theme to give children a chance to sample different types of literature. A parent guide offers information about how storysacks® work and the parent prompt gives ideas to help parents or carers make the most out of the storysack®. Props, characters and sometimes scenery from the story make storytelling fun with lots of opportunity for role play. A game completes the sack enabling children to develop oral, organisational and social skills. Some storysacks® also include an audio tape or CD to enable independent listening and to support those parents who may have difficulty reading themselves, where copyright permits.
This wonderful, yet simple resource has received national and international acclaim, recently receiving the ‘Alcuin Award’ for outstanding innovation in education by the European Parents’ Association.
So don’t be misled by cheaper alternatives. A storysack® is far more than a book with a cuddly toy. Each element of our storysacks® is carefully selected and occupies an important place in the educational philosophy.
These Play and Perform Boxes are a stunning new concept in three dimensional storytelling that allows children to bring stories to life. This Highly portable product can be played with at any time and taken anywhere.
