Spooky Story Kids
Get ready for a spine-tingling adventure into the world of spooky storytelling!
In this creative writing workshop, kids will discover the secrets behind crafting a good scary story. They'll explore how to create eerie settings, develop mysterious characters, and build suspenseful plots that keep readers on the edge of their seats. Through interactive discussions, hands-on activities, and guided writing time, young writers will bring their own spooky tales to life. By the end of the workshop, each child will have written their very own scary story and had the chance to share it with the group. Whether it's a haunted house, a lurking monster, or a brave hero, this workshop will help kids unleash their imaginations and learn the art of storytelling in a fun and creative way.
We will talk about spooky things but will keep it age appropriate.
A portion of your class fee will support the Alliston Food Bank.
