All of the resources are labelled with easily recognised symbols for Character, Setting, Problem, Solution giving the children a tool to independently weave magical tales.

Character- Who the story is about?

Setting- Where the story will happen?

Problem- What problems will the character face? 

Solution - How will they solve the problems and get to a happy ending?

Tales Toolkit develops many areas of learning, skills and characteristics of effective learning including language, literacy, social skills, creativity, confidence, empathy, boys writing, problem solving, maths and lots more.

How Does Tales Toolkit Benefit Your Child?

1. Boosts Communication Skills
By creating and sharing stories, children expand their vocabulary, learn new phrases, and improve their ability to express ideas and emotions clearly.

2. Fosters Creativity and Imagination
Tales Toolkit provides a safe space for imaginative play. Each story is unique, and children are encouraged to let their ideas flow freely.

3. Builds Confidence
Children gain a sense of ownership over their stories, which fosters independence and confidence in sharing ideas in a group setting.

4. Develops Problem-Solving Abilities
With every story they create, children learn how to address problems and come up with solutions, enhancing their critical thinking skills.

5. Supports Early Literacy and Numeracy
Tales Toolkit offers natural opportunities to introduce basic literacy and numeracy skills, from counting characters to recognising letters.
