Storywalk® Extras
At StorybookWalk.com, we like to make our Storybook Walk Editions EXTRA-ordinary. By adding various extras, like prompts, stations, or audio, our walks are more interactive, more fun, and more accessible to everyone.
Prompts
We make reading an entirely new experience by adding activity, literacy, and discussion prompts that get children talking, jumping, singing, and having fun. From “Give your neighbor a high five” to “Sing the text to the tune of Old MacDonald” children will be amazed at just how much fun a Storybook Walk can be.
Example: Activity Prompt 8 from The Mighty McKraken:
Have a silent, invisible sword fight with your neighbor.
Stations
Sometimes a Storybook Walk just begs for more. Stations are additional hands-on activities that can be set up easily next to each Storybook Walk frame/spread. See catalog listings to see which books include station ideas.
Example: Activity Prompt 2 from Ricky the rock that couldn’t roll. Close your eyes and feel your rock under your fingers. How does your rock feel?
Audio
There are two different ways that audio can be used in a Storywalk:
The story is read by the author or a narrator so that children can listen as they walk.
Additional sounds are added to the story. For example, in a story about birds, the audio would play various bird songs. Or, in a silly book, additional activity prompts might be given by a crazy narrrator.
Example: We are currently working on adding this feature. The image is from The Acorn & the Oak.
