The Art of Storytelling — The Art of Storytelling is Vital for Child Development
Storytelling is the oldest and purest form of teaching. It is an important part of the early childhood learning program. It plays a vital part in a student’s overall development because through stories, children are able to learn more about life, the world, and themselves.
5 Major Importances of Storytelling to Child Development
​
1. Storytelling Improves Children’s Social Skills
​
Through storytelling, children are motivated to listen to others. They learn to be more patient and to let others speak, they begin to open their minds to other people’s opinions and become understanding of others’ thoughts.
​
Their focus and listening skills are also developed as they pay attention to what the storyteller is saying. As you tell stories, they will realize that if they do not listen, they will miss out on some part of the plot.
​
​
2. Storytelling Makes Learning Process Easier
​
​
Storytelling is a good way to prepare your child for school because it makes learning easier and more natural. It also improves a child’s concentration, which is a plus for academic success.
Storytelling to child development is a fundamental human endeavor. Early childhood education needs to embrace literacy programs that actively employ storytelling.
​
​
3. Storytelling Enhances a Child’s Communication Skills
​
​
Storytelling is a fun way for your child to get familiar with words, syllables and sounds that they may not have usually heard in everyday conversations. This helps broaden your child’s vocabulary, as children pick up new words as they hear them.
When telling stories, children should be actively encouraged to ask questions and to talk about how they feel, the plot and the characters in the story. This will increase their willingness to express themselves and communicate their thoughts and feelings.
​
​
4. Storytelling Heightens Children’s Curiosity and Imagination
​
​
Another importance of storytelling to child development is that children who are told stories are inspired to be imaginative and creative.
​
Storytelling enables a child to visualize the scene, the people in the narrative, and the plot as it develops. The child is able to create the picture in which the narrative is set for themselves rather than receiving the visual to go along with the words, as in the case of watching movies.
​
It is also important to always choose a diverse range of topics and themes to foster your child’s creative thinking.
​
​
5. Storytelling Develops a Child’s Cultural and Moral Understanding
​
​
One major importance of storytelling to child development is that telling historical and traditional stories will help children learn to study their own cultures and start to understand that people have a variety of racial, religious, and national origins.
With storytelling, children can get important cultural and moral lessons. Fables cleverly include moral lessons in ways that are frequently well-received and enjoyed by children.
SOFT SKILLS ARE INCREASINGLY BECOMING MORE IMPORTANT IN THE WORKPLACE
Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand your emotions and recognize the emotions and motivations of those around you.
​
Emotional intelligence counts for twice as much as IQ and technical skills combined in determining who will be a top workplace performer.
​
A Careerbuilder survey of more than 2600 U.S. hiring managers showed that a whopping 71% of employers value emotional intelligence in employees over IQ. And 34% of them admitted to placing greater emphasis on EQ ( emotional quotient ) when hiring and promoting employees.
99% of working American adults report working with at least one person who isn't self-aware. 61% of employers are more likely to promote workers with high emotional intelligence over candidates with high IQ.
