Big Kids Club: The teachers’ drawer!

Storytelling or Brain's work out!

Big Kids Club is a place where the magic happens! All the teachers agree that Storytelling brings such an incredible moments for the children that will remind in their memories beyond the stories. 

Through Storytelling we love to:

  • Create new neural connections in children brain that improve their imagination, creativity, understanding and interpretation. 
  • Offer a space that allow children to relax and rest.
  • Keep the children's minds active and attentive, which helps them to absorb information, strive to remember the characters and their characters, features and emotions!
  • Reinforce relationships between their selves and others. Identifying with the characters and their stories make children more receptive to their emotional state and embrace feelings in an empathetic way.
