At Once Upon a Time With Waggles we believe that storytelling is a powerful and natural way for young children to build vocabulary and communication skills. Our interactive storytelling and activity sessions in Hertford create the perfect environment for learning, listening and laughter.
Exposure to rich, varied language
Stories introduce children to words and phrases they would not normally hear in everyday conversation. This helps to develop your child’s understanding of word meanings while extending their vocabulary. Alliteration and rhyming phrases together with pictures and interactive play make it easier for children to understand and remember words and stories.
There is more treasure in books than in all the pirate’s loot on Treasure Island.

Reinforcing learning
Children learn words best through repetition, association with actions and when accompanied by visual cues. New language skills can be reinforced when children are exposed to their use in engaging storytelling.
Books train your imagination to think
big.
Taylor Swift
Storytelling encourages active participation
When children retell stories, interact and ask questions, they are building the skills needed for speaking in sentences.
Our storytelling activity encourages your child to organize their thoughts logically while stimulating imagination and creativity. This creative thinking enriches expressive language and helps them communicate more clearly and vividly.
