Creative Prompt Series at The Book Chook

If you teach kids to write, or create in some other way, you might be interested in my Creative Prompt Series. Each Friday at The Book Chook, I post a prompt that encourages kids, parents and teachers to get started with a little creativity. My latest post was about using some story elements to generate plotting ideas, but earlier prompts have used nature, a poem, a video or those two magic words, "what if?".

Good day,
I picked interest in you after going through your short profile and demanding it is necessary for me to write to you immediately. I have something very important to discuss with you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on (kristinageorgieva480@gmail.com) for full details.
Best regards,
Kristalina Georgieva.
