Story Attack (Koramangala)

This storytelling event is for the children, and even for the child in you if you like!

The storytelling session will be an interactive one with the intention to create dialogue with children. The idea is to engage them into two different kinds of stories in a single session. These stories will be selected from a range of themes to indulge kids into fiction, folk tales to non-fiction and more.

Besides the fun that these storytelling sessions offer, they will also implicitly focus on the child's:

• vocabulary-building
• speaking skills
• listening and listening comprehension skills
• curiosity-building and critical thinking skills

Note:

• This event is most suited for children aged 4 to 12 years, however it is open to everyone who enjoys listening to stories.
• It is conducted in English.
• The focus of the session is on building childrens’ curiosity and providing them with exposure to a variety of themes. Consequently, it adds to the development of their cognition and learning.
• The language-skills in focus during the event pertain to the English Language.
