Children’s Storytelling Workshop
Hop Into Creativity: Imagimosaic’s Easter Special Storytelling Workshop with Jo Rooks!
Spring was in the air, creativity was blooming, and chocolate eggs weren’t the only treasures waiting to be discovered! This Easter, Imagimosaic hosted a magical Easter Special Storytelling Workshop, and what a joy it was to see the next generation of budding young authors bring their imaginations to life!
At the heart of this inspiring day was none other than the incredibly talented Jo Rooks, an award-winning children’s author and illustrator known for her vibrant characters and heartwarming stories. With her guidance, the children unlocked their creative potential in a workshop packed full of Easter-themed storytelling fun, adorable characters, and a touch of sweet inspiration.
A Fun-Filled Day of Storytelling and Easter Magic
From the moment the workshop began, it was clear this wasn’t just a day of sitting and listening — it was all about jumping into the story (just like an energetic Easter bunny)! Children were invited to stretch their imaginations as they explored the power of storytelling in a festive setting that buzzed with creativity.
Here’s a peek at what made the day so special:
Creating Their Own Easter Characters
Step aside, Easter Squirrel Sam is coming !
The kids kicked off the workshop by dreaming up their very own unique Easter characters, from adventurous chicks to magical egg fairies and even ate-too-many-chocolate-egg Squirrel . Jo Rooks shared her insights on character design — showing the kids how to bring their ideas to life with fun details, personality quirks, and colourful descriptions.
Each child crafted their character’s backstory:
Where did their character come from?
What’s their biggest Easter wish?
What makes them special in the Easter world?
The room came alive with stories as children shared their creations, inspiring one another along the way!
Imagining Unique Easter Adventures
Once their characters were ready, it was time to set them on an Easter adventure like no other.
Whether it was solving the mystery of disappearing eggs or saving a magical spring garden, each child let their imagination run wild and began weaving their own story with guidance from Jo Rooks.
Jo taught them the fundamentals of storytelling:
How to build an exciting plot.
What makes a great beginning, middle, and end.
Ways to add twists, challenges, and humor to their tales.
The children’s creativity soared as they wrote down their ideas and developed plots filled with excitement and wonder, proving that inspiration is truly everywhere!
Festive Easter Activities
In true Easter spirit, the workshop included a variety of themed hands-on activities to keep the energy flowing:
Egg Hunt with a Twist: Children collected “story prompts” inside decorative eggs to spark fun and unexpected ideas for their storylines.
Crafting Easter Story Cards: Kids designed their own book covers for their stories, complete with charming illustrations of their characters.
Story Swaps: Towards the end, participants shared their stories in pairs or small groups — bringing the workshop full circle with a celebration of collaboration and creativity.
Fun, Laughter, and Lifelong Inspiration
The workshop wasn’t just about writing — it was about empowering children to embrace their creativity, find their voice, and plant the seeds of confidence for becoming young authors. Whether it was through laughter at a bunny’s clumsy mishaps or pride in putting pen to paper, every child left with a glow of accomplishment.
Jo Rooks brought her infectious enthusiasm to the day, sharing advice and her own love for storytelling, while making sure every child felt supported and inspired. It was more than just a workshop: it was a spark for a lifetime of creativity.
Takeaway Moments From Our Bright Young Authors
At the end of the workshop, every child had created their very own Easter-themed short story — and some even began thinking about publishing their ideas! Whether it was their first foray into writing or a continuation of their creative journey, the workshop inspired them to believe in their storytelling abilities.
Parents described the day as one that:
“Put smiles on their kids’ faces while teaching valuable skills.”
“Encouraged their child to think outside the box and explore storytelling in exciting ways.”
“Was so fun, the kids didn’t even realize they were learning!”
And for many, this workshop sparked a greater level of curiosity about what might be possible — could their story one day turn into a book?
