All things story telling

Story telling is VERY important for the young child. Not only does oral story telling help a child develop his or her imagination, it helps develop vocabulary, turn taking, eye-contact, listening skills, and many other skills needed for your child or student to be ready for kindergarten. I'm no real expert in this area, though, so if you really need convincing, take a look here.
