The description below was contributed by: Arlene Higgins, on Jun 07, 2000 05:54:05PM


Appropriate grades or age groups:
Preschool and Younger
Elementary School

Estimated time to complete activity or implement technique:
Can be done in 5 minutes

Materials needed (if applicable):
Cottage Classics set with tape and Castles Tales with tape, both available from the Story Teller, and the public library.

Activity set-up/instructions or description of technique:
Use the felt boards to tell the stories with each set. Use the audio tape with it, or in the car. The children can help place figures on the background and they love to be involved. Look for the stories at the Library.

Other suggestions or comments:
My 5 year old was exited when she found "The Princess and the Pea" at the library. She couldn't wait to get home and read it. It is on the Castles Tales set.
