Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Story-Telling in the Home "World-old and beautiful stories, Which I once, when little, From the neighbor´s children have heard When we, on summer evenings, Sat on the steps before the house - door, Bending us down to the quiet narrative With little listening hearts." - Heinrich Heine.

The Value of Story-Telling. Of late we have come to take story-telling seriously. It is one of the oldest of arts and one of the most valuable. "Everything argues," says Dr. Richard M. Hodge, "that the story is par excellence the language of childhood. Children love a story as they do no other form of address. It is their most characteristic form of expression and our most direct and successful means of conveying to them our ideas. Stories are pictures of life and moving-pictures, talking pictures, colored pictures, at that. Their meaning lies on the surface. They reveal every phase and principle of life. The ideas expressed are charged with emotion and consequently affect the will. Stories have plots and plots are Providences. When angels or fairies figure in a plot they are ministers of justice. Stories leave nothing to explain. Aspirations and conduct portrayed in them do not have to be applied to the lives of the hearers. The story no less than the drama holds the mirror up to nature, and the hearer is ´as one who beholds his natural face in a glass."´ Story-telling has its physical value. At the end of the day in the home, or in the midst of commotion in the school, it calms the mind, rests the perturbed spirit, and even helps to prepare the body either for sleep or for renewed activity. It is the most concrete method of teaching and the most interesting. By means of the story the story-teller appeals not only to the intellect but-to the feelings, and adds to the intellectual value of the tale the power of his own personality. Intellectually the story helps the imagination, leads to the love of good books and helps the child, as he retells the story himself, in his free and accurate use of language. It is a source of joy, both now and through life. A source of joy is a source of strength. Says a great story-teller: "In the school the story is used for language, composition and other formal work; but in the home we can tell a story for pure pleasure, and we should give children an opportunity to tell and retell stories. Children like to create and whether it be with sand, wood or words, the processes underlying it are the same.
