Anyone who has been around children for any significant period of time will notice how absolutely enamored they are with stories. Bedtime stories, naptime stories, during the day stories. They just love stories! And the more excitement a story bears, the more intrigued they are with their childlike anticipation and the glistening in their eyes.
But have you ever tried telling a child a story where he or she was actually a part of the story? Now you definitely have their undivided attention!
Now think back to your own childhood. Do you remember any stories you were told as a child? Take a few moments to reflect back. Any favorites pop up in memory? Any where you were the hero or heroine of the story?
