Welcome [wlm_firstname]!
.
In this Make ‘n’ Learn, you’ll learn how to make a fun & portable mini-theatre complete with inspiring props & characters using natural materials & basic patterns.
You’ll also have a chance to watch as I tell a story with these pieces which will give you an idea of how easy it can be!
The Enchanted Story Box Theatre – Make ‘n’ Learn is designed to help you to explore materials like wool rovings, felt & yarn with children by making small & simple handwork projects.
Once you’ve built your theatre, you can easily spin it into a collaborative Build-Upon-Project, by adding more figures & props to tell many stories for a long time to come….!
If you have any questions, just email me HERE – I’m happy to help you.
Have fun & Happy Making!

The Story
.
This video demonstrates how to tell a story using your Enchanted Story Box Theatre.
Watch it once for the story & then watch it again paying close attention to the moments when I pause or change my voice.
Notice how I take my time moving the story pieces about – nice & easy does it for little ones!
The WAY in which you tell a story is as important as the actual story itself.
