# Make a story together.

Let a child choose what happens next.

## Why try this?

A shared story can give a child a reason to invent characters, choices, and consequences.

## What to bring

An adult-operated chat, an age-appropriate theme, and invented characters. Use made-up names.

## Your starting request

Help us make a story for a [age]-year-old about a tiny lighthouse keeper. Write a gentle opening under 100 words. Then offer two possible choices and wait for us to pick. Keep the language suitable for the age. Let our choices change the story.

## Illustrative result

This is an authored teaching example, not a live model response.

A short opening scene and a choice. The child’s decision provides the next turn rather than a long, finished story.

## Then make it fit

Our character chose a third option: [child’s idea]. Continue with that and include a problem they can solve kindly.

## Before you use it

An adult should review and operate the tool. Check age requirements; do not share a child’s personal details or photos.

## What you are learning

Leave room for the child to create. The conversation is part of the activity.
