The ability to tell a story is associated with reading comprehension and early literacy. Parents urge your children to tell stories or retell stories that they have heard.
Look at the paper with the hole in it. Begin by asking questions such as, "What do you think this hole represents?" (mud puddle, pond, cave, black hole in space, a shadow under the bed, etc) Once the hole has been identified as an object, ask more questions to create a story with a beginning, middle and ending. Encourage your child to paint the scene as you create the story. Use sponges and tools to help add details both to the picture and to the story. When finished ask your child to retell the story to you or a nearby friend.
