Story Starter Picture Cubes

The Story Starter Picture Cubes are an engaging oral storytelling and early literacy resource designed to help pre-writers develop imagination, vocabulary and confidence when creating stories.

Ideal for early years classrooms, primary schools, literacy centres and home learning, these durable foam picture cubes provide a fun, hands-on way for children to explore the key elements of a story.

The colour-coded cubes help children identify different parts of a story. Blue cubes represent characters, orange cubes represent settings and green cubes represent situations.

By rolling the cubes and combining the pictures, children can quickly generate the key elements they need to begin telling an imaginative story.

This hands-on storytelling activity encourages children to connect ideas, describe characters and settings, develop situations and organise their thoughts into a simple narrative. It is particularly useful for pre-writers and young learners who are developing oral language skills before moving on to independent writing.

The set includes 6 durable foam cubes, with 2 blue, 2 green and 2 orange cubes, plus an activity guide. Each cube measures approximately 1.5 inches, making them easy for young children to handle.
