The Science of Storytime: Why Kids Need Narratives
In this episode, we’re leaning into the magic of storytime, not just as entertainment, but as essential nourishment for growing brains, bodies, and bonds.
We’ll explore how stories shape development, offer regulation, and plant the seeds of identity. We’ll read a bit, play a bit, and remember the power of voices that wrapped us in safety.
Today’s brew is a childhood memory in a cup—light and effervescent tisane that smells like flowers—lavender and chamomile with a drop of peppermint.
