Imagination
“An audio story is the most intimate form of media because when children listen they are constantly building their own images of the story in their imaginations.”
Decoding Language
“Audio stories are like a fitness course for the brain, with language processing, comprehension and vocabulary building as the important takeaways.”
Social Success
“Stories create empathy and understanding about other people’s needs and feelings, a vital part of being socially successful.”
Consequences
“Stories tell about people meeting challenges and solving problems, helping children think through making the best choices and avoiding mistakes.”
Confidence
“Stories help build a solid platform for speaking about ourselves, telling who we are, what we want, how we can make a difference.”
Quiet Time
“Stories create the perfect “quiet time” for travel, spending time alone and bedtime where “once upon a time” takes us away to a safe, peaceful place.”
