One interesting aspect could be the unique French accent that adds charm to the story. Also, French kids might incorporate local folktales or cultural elements in their stories, like the tales of 'Puss in Boots' which has a French origin. Their gestures and expressions while telling the story can be quite animated as well.
French kids may have a more flamboyant style. Their language is full of nuances and they tend to be expressive. In contrast to some more reserved cultures, French kids might use more grand gestures while telling a story. For example, waving their arms around to show the size of a monster in the story.
One benefit is that it boosts creativity. A kid can create characters, settings, and plots all from their imagination. It's like building a whole new world in their mind and then sharing it.
It helps improve their language skills. By using different words and sentence structures while telling a story, they become better at expressing themselves. Also, it boosts their creativity as they have to come up with characters, settings and plots.
One important adverb is 'finalement' (finally). It's great for concluding parts of the story. Another is 'd'abord' (first). For example, 'D'abord, le personnage principal a décidé de quitter sa maison. Finalement, il est arrivé à son but.'
Some common French transition words for telling a story are 'ensuite' (then), 'puis' (then, after that), 'après' (after). These words help to connect different parts of the story and make the flow more smooth.
You can gently guide the kid. For example, if they are going off on too many tangents, you can say something like 'That's really interesting, but can you tell me more about the beginning part?' This helps them focus a bit while still being engaged.
It enhances their creativity. When kids tell stories, they get to create characters, settings, and plots from their imagination. It also improves their language skills. They learn new words, how to structure sentences, and communicate effectively. Moreover, it helps in building their confidence as they express themselves freely.
