Campfire Stories

Materials Needed:
Flashlight

What to Do:
Gather the children in a circle and turn out the lights. Explain to children that the person with the flashlight is the talker and everyone else is the listener. Help the children start off their story by saying, “One day Ms._____’s class went camping and while they were camping…” and then pass the flashlight to the child sitting next to you.  Continue in this manner until each child has a chance to add to the story.

Record the children’s story and read aloud to the class. Explain that they are all the authors of this story and hang it on the wall for them to share with their parents.
