You'll find Christmas draw and tell stories, Halloween draw and tell stories, Easter draw and tell stories, Hanukkah draw and tell stories, Valentine's Day draw and tell stories, and Saint Patrick's Day draw and tell stories. There's even a Fourth of July draw and tell story, plus a birthday draw and tell story. As a bonus, this holiday draw and tell story volume also includes amusing and inventive holiday themed action rhymes to help children get their wiggles out during storytelling and other programs. As with all of Barbara's other draw and tell story collections, this holiday story collection includes clear instructions and traceable drawings, plus an informative guide to using the lively and time-honored draw and tell storytelling technique. Draw and tell stories are simple stories for young children. These drawing tales are very easy to use and require no special materials or experience. As each draw and tell story is told, its characters and objects are sketched onto a single sheet of paper, while children look on. These simple elements build up on the drawing until, by the time the story ends, a composite picture representing the subject of the story has emerged, much to the children's delight. The draw and tell form of storytelling is great for parents, teachers and children's librarians. Author Barbara Freedman-De Vito has been creating and using draw and tell stories for many years in her work as a children's librarian, freelance storyteller, teacher, and workshop leader.
