Welcome to Touching Stories
In my years as a storyteller, I have come to realize that storytelling can and should be more than a passive entertainment for children.
Storytelling has the ability to be an interactive, whole body experience to help people learn about their world.
Touching Stories is the name of my new endeavor that effectively captures that multi-sensory aspect of telling that I have come to love. Touching Stories consists of two specialized programs:
- The StoryCrafters teaches children to be storytellers through active watching and listening as well as crafts and role-play.
- Touching Stories is a program geared toward children and adults with developmental to help them experience story through, not just words, but also "book pages" that allow them to access manipulatives, smells, and textures that relate directly to the story they are hearing.
