Inspire children to use simple materials to make stories

From the award-winning authors of StoryMaking easily accessible card decks that will inspire educators and children to use simple materials to make stories and projects.

The StoryMakers on Deck cards inspire educators and children to use simple materials to make stories and projects. The cards are divided into six categories of story elements: generating story ideas, crafting a lead, imagining a character, making a setting, elaborating the story, and closing the story.

Each card includes:
  • A beautiful photograph of a commonly found open-ended loose part.
  • An open-ended question that the adult can use to launch an exploration as children play and make a story.
  • A photograph of a child created story using the material pictured to serve as an example. The story's text or child's dictation from a portion of their Maker's Talk accompanies the stories and projects.
  • Tips for how you can use this card to spark the imaginations and grow the abilities of young StoryMakers.


    • 84 pages (40 cards).
