Here’s a fun activity I would play with my kids when we traveled. It ties in great with yesterday’s prompt of myth making and storytelling. When playing at home, everyone builds on the story by adding a sentence or idea. I would designate one person as scribe. The scribe writes down the story and reads it back at the end and also plays. For our online version, I’ll start the story and everyone gets to add a sentence. Rules: - One sentence at a time - You can add more than one sentence but they can’t be in a row. - Copy the existing story into a comment and add your sentence. Story ends at 11:59 pm CDT today. I’ll start. Tagging a few to get us started. Thanks @Allan R. for the first sentence. @Daniel Cavaretta @Adam Formanek @Betty Jo Winters @Mayelice Castro @Andrea Quintal Portas @Anna Brown @Janell Bitton @Blue Mojo @Celia Kibler @Charlie Svensson @Aurelie Delahalle @Gus Gray @Max Orlewicz @Lisa Vanderveen @Mukkove Johnson

One of the most powerful tools for resilience is having a "Strong Narrative Identity." This is the ability to look at the events of your life, the wins, the losses, and the messy middle and weave them into a story that makes sense. Research shows that kids who know their family stories and understand that life has "ups and downs" are more emotionally resilient. When we help our kids tell their own stories, we move them from being "products" of their environment to being the authors of their lives. Literacy is the tool they use to claim that authority. Have you shared any of your story with your kids? It’s not always easy, especially if you grew up in a challenging environment. What’s one story you would share?
