It's a memory game that encourages kids to use their imagination. First, each player gathers all five story cards about a single character. Once all of the players have collected their story cards, they arrange the cards to tell a story of their choice. Maybe the kitten unravelled the sweater and rolled the yarn into a tidy ball. Or, maybe the clever kitten started with the ball of yarn and knit his very own sweater. Tell-A-Story encourages kids to develop their imagination and creativity as well as logical thinking and language skills. For 1 to 5 players.
