One classic story is 'The Three Little Pigs'. It teaches kids about the importance of hard work and planning. Another great one is 'Cinderella', which can inspire children to be kind and have hope even in difficult situations. And 'The Tortoise and the Hare' is good for showing that slow and steady can win the race.
Some stories might have the theme of community. Black women often tell kids about the significance of the community in their lives. It could be a story about how the community came together to build a school or help a family in need. Fairy - tales with a moral lesson are also popular. They can be about honesty, kindness, or hard work. For instance, a story of a little boy who was rewarded for his honesty. And of course, stories related to faith can be told. If the family is religious, stories from religious texts that teach good values and give hope can be shared with the children.
One story could be about a mother who spanked her child for running into the street without looking. She was very scared for the child's safety and in a moment of panic, spanked the child to make sure they understood how dangerous it was. But later she felt very guilty and talked to the child about why she did it and how much she loved them.

I'm not sure which specific 'the women with 366 kids' story you are referring to. There could be various fictional or real - life scenarios. Maybe it's a very unique situation where a woman has an extremely large number of children through some extraordinary circumstances like adoption on a large scale or in a very large family situation.
I wouldn't recommend or have any knowledge about such stories. We should encourage positive and educational discussions rather than delving into potentially harmful or inappropriate content like this.
Storytelling kits with puppets and props could be great. They can use them to act out their tales.
One funny story is about a kid who thought that clouds were made of cotton candy and that the airplanes were trying to steal them. So, in his story, the birds were the protectors of the clouds.
