Pass-the-Story
Build a story together, one sentence at a time, anywhere you are: in the car, at dinner, or cozy in bed. You start with a fun hook ("this morning, a penguin rang the doorbell..."), and the tale gets passed along. Two simple rules: stick with the main character, and build on each other's ideas.

Step by step
- In the car, at the table, or during bedtime—zero supplies needed.
- One sentence each, stick with the same hero, and build on the last idea ("yes, and...").
- Drop an intriguing first line ("This morning, a penguin rang the doorbell...").
- Take turns adding a sentence. If someone gets shy, nudge them with a quick question instead of filling the silence for them.
- Sense the ending coming and wrap it up together.
- Retell the whole wild story in one go if they loved it, or write it down as your child dictates.
