Little Storymakers is a playful, interactive workshop for young children that celebrates the power of story through music, rhythm and imagination. Designed for ages 3–6, the session invites families to explore how stories begin, using simple English and Irish phrases. Together, we create a lively “fill-in-the-blank” musical story, guided by movement, rhythm and the children’s own ideas. No Irish is needed, everyone can join in and enjoy learning through sound and creativity. This joyful workshop encourages confidence, curiosity and expression, showing children that storytelling and language become magical when we make them together.

Is ceardlann shúimiúil, idirghníomhach í Little Storymakers do leanaí óga a cheiliúrann cumhacht an scéil trí cheol, rithim agus samhlaíocht. Deartha do pháistí 3–6 bliana d’aois, tugann an seisiún cuireadh do theaghlaigh iniúchadh a dhéanamh ar conas a thosaíonn scéalta, ag úsáid frásaí simplí i mBéarla agus i nGaeilge. Cruthaímid scéal ceolmhar “líon-na-bpláinc” le chéile, faoi threoir gluaiseachta, rithime agus smaointe na bpáistí féin. Níl gá le Gaeilge — is féidir le gach duine páirt a ghlacadh. Spreagann an cheardlann áthasach seo muinín, fiosracht agus cruthaitheacht i leanaí tríd an draíocht a bhaineann le scéal agus teanga.
