Learn and Grow System

Create endless stories with our Short Story Narrative Board

Part of the Learn & Grow range, designed to help children explore storytelling, imagination, and literacy through visual, hands-on play.

🧮 Stage 4: Developing Core Literacy Skills

Our Short Story Narrative Board introduces children to the structure of storytelling through picture prompts.

• Use the included dilemma, setting, and character tokens to build a complete short story.

• Choose your story’s tense (past, present, or future) and describe what happens next.

• Explore sentence building, sequencing, and expressive language through guided play.

Add-on packs such as Transport, Dinosaurs, and Weather can be used to expand the story themes — helping children mix familiar interests with literacy learning for even more engagement.

📝 Stage 5: Independent Thinking & Creative Application

• Create stories independently, combining tokens from different themes to invent new adventures.

• Use as a story prompt, writing board, or oral storytelling aid for confident readers and writers.

• Encourage creative writing, problem-solving, and imagination — building the foundations for descriptive and narrative writing.

Add-on ideas:


  • Feelings Pack – weave emotions into stories for empathy and character development.

  • Seasons or Weather Pack – add realistic settings or challenges.

  • Animal or Transport Packs – extend vocabulary and introduce action scenes.

💛 Why parents love it:

• One board, limitless storytelling adventures.

• Visual, hands-on design helps children turn ideas into words.

• Interchangeable tokens = no single-use clutter.

• Designed to grow with your child — from simple sentence building to full story writing.

• Supports EYFS and KS1 skills: language, sequencing, storytelling, expressive writing, and imagination.

Brilliant!

This was the board I was looking forward to the most out of the batch that I ordered, and it didn't disappoint. It was the first one my son pulled out to use and he instantly got to work. I bought a range of items to support the school work he was being set during lockdown and try to make it a bit more fun for him. His first story earnt him a star peg from his teacher. Great at giving them a chance to use their imagination and practice their writing. 5 stars! X
