Roald Dahl - Great Stories For Your Kids

Monday, May 12th, 2008

Kids truly love stories. And kids love it when somebody takes the time to tell or read them a fine story. They usually have a few favourite stories which they want to hear over and over again. That’s good, because it allows them to continuously develop the mental images that go with the story and to make use of their own imagination.Some parents do a really great job helping their kind to develop their fantasy and to allow them to have inputs other than from TV. Others are unfortunately not aware, how important it is to encourage this capacity of imagination, fantasy and mental images. Video games and TV may be very parctical to keep kids busy and out of your feet, but they are not really helping the growth of your kids mental abilities.”I don’t have time to read stories to my kids” you may say. That’s truly a problem for some parents, more so if you are a working parent and if you have to take care of your household and kids after your regular work hours. That however does not mean that you can not stimulate the intellect of your kids with good stories. Fortunately, there are plenty very good recordings of childrens novels and stories for kids available. These audiobooks come either on Compact Disc in physical format or even more convenient, free audio books for kids can be downloaded from the internet and you can then either play them on your computer, burn them to CD and listen to them on a regular stereo or on your car audio system, or they can be directly played on an MP3 player.

The great thing is that many of these kids tales can be found for very little or even no money at all! The choice of audio books with kids adventure stories is very hughe and you are sure to find the audios with stories that your children love best.

Roald Dahl - Some of the more well known authors and stories are i.e. Roald Dahl and his series of well known and popular stories like i.e. “Fantastic Mr. Fox“, “The Witches” or “Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator“. These are the tales kids love. They are taken out of a fantasy world but contain parts that the kids recognize from their own daily life. The descriptions of the people and places where the story happens are detailed enough to provide the kids with a good base to start, but then the author leaves enough room for their own imagination. A good tale well told is really ‘cinema in the head’!

Step back a few minutes and close your eyes. Now try to remember one of the stories that you were told when you were still a kid, or if nobody told you a story (how sad…) try to remember a book you read then. Normally you will find that a combination of images and even feelings will pop up in your mind and you are taken back into a long forgotten fantasy world.

Be sure that your kids will be able to also experince these great recollection when they are grown up, help them develop one of the most important mental abilities, creativity and fantasy! With a good kids audio book you can wake up mental abilites that will be important for your kid the entire life …. and you will have a lot of really happy quiet hours yourself, as the kids will listen to these stories over and over again.
