Why us? - Advocating for Tales Toolkit

Alistair met Kate back in 2015, when Tales Toolkit was still young (although it had been in development for several years before that). Alistair was struck by the potential of Tale Toolkit. Stories, he understood innately, hold power.

It is through story that we teach and learn and in story that the great wonders and mysteries of the real (and fantastical) world are captured. A resource that enables children to articulate the stories that matter to them in a way that can be shared and understood is definitely worth having. Tales Toolkit is such a resource, giving children a simple but highly effective means of exploring, creating and telling the stories that are important to them.

We're so grateful for Alistair's continued support for all things Tales Toolkit.
