About four nights a week I take care of a 3.5 year old little boy named, Noah. On nights when he has trouble falling asleep he’ll ask me for a story.
I’ll ask him, “What should the story be about?”
He’ll usually reply with something like, “Giant robots!”
So I’ll begin creating a story that I know he’ll like. The really cool part is, after a couple minutes Noah will jump in and add something to it. At that point we start creating the story together and it’s one of the best parts of my day!
