Supporting creative thinking and writing skills 🖊 🤔

7th Nov 2025
✨ See the link attached for StoryCubes 🎲 a fun and interactive digital resource designed to spark your child’s imagination and support their creative writing! 🎲💭
 
What are StoryCubes?
StoryCubes are sets of picture dice that children can roll to create their own stories. Each cube shows different images, encouraging children to use their imagination to connect the pictures and build a story around them.
 
How parents can use them:
Parents can 'roll' the cubes with their child and take turns adding parts to a story based on the pictures shown. This helps to develop language skills, widen vocabulary, and build confidence in storytelling and writing. You can also encourage your child to write down their story afterwards ✍️ great practice for sequencing ideas, using descriptive language, and expanding creativity! ✍️📚
