Tales Toolkit
@TalesToolkit
Tales Toolkit is an innovative early years product paired with online training that uses story to develop language, communication, social skills, and creativity
The results from our pilot with the Education Endowment Foundation are out now! 🥳 @EducEndowFoundn @GoldsmithsUoL youtu.be/H1K6TR8fpg0
Huge pleasure working with @GoldsmithsUoL
Goldsmiths' work with @TalesToolkit has been included in these @EducEndowFoundn evaluations of early years programmes. Tales Toolkit supports 3- to 5-year-olds’ language and social development through oral storytelling, helping children create their own stories.
Look at this inspiring #TalesToolkit setup! Children can independently choose characters, settings, problems, and solutions to build their very own stories. A beautiful invitation to ignite creativity, language, and a love of storytelling. #TalesToolkit #EarlyYears

Round of applause for early years superheroes! To the educators turning boxes into castles & cuddly toys into curious explorers – you’re inspiring a love of learning every day. #ThankYouEducators #NationalWeekOfPlay #TalesToolkit
We love using recycled materials for storytelling – junk modelling becomes the perfect springboard for tales about dragons, deep-sea dives, or flying houses! What recycled item sparked the last story in your setting? Tag us with your sustainable story setups! #TalesToolkit
