Create a positive and encouraging environment. Display their previous drawings of horse stories on the wall. When they see their work being valued, they will be more motivated to create more. Also, give positive feedback on their drawings, highlighting what is good about them, like 'I really like how you drew the horse's mane'.
Tell them more horse stories. The more stories they hear, the more inspiration they will get. You can read them classic horse stories or make up your own, and let their imagination run wild based on these stories.
We can provide them with interesting prompts. For example, give them a picture and ask them to make up a story based on it. Also, reading a lot of stories to them can inspire their creativity. They will gradually learn different story structures and elements, and then be able to create their own.
These drawings can be a window into the children's cultural influence. If they draw a horse with a certain type of saddle or decoration that is typical in their local culture, it shows how their environment affects their interpretation of horse stories. It also reveals their perception of horses, whether as gentle friends or powerful heroes as described in the stories.
One way is to create a cozy reading nook at home. A comfortable and inviting space with lots of soft pillows and good lighting can make reading more enjoyable for children.
Another approach is to connect reading with things they love. For example, if a child is into dinosaurs, find books about dinosaurs. Also, visiting the library regularly can expose them to a wide range of books and make reading seem like an exciting adventure.
We can encourage it by making it a regular activity. Say, have a 'tell and draw' time every week. During this time, share your own simple stories and drawings first as an example. Then, let the kids take over. You can also introduce some story elements like interesting characters or magical settings to spark their imagination and make them more eager to tell and draw stories.
Another way is to take them to the library regularly. The library has a wide range of books and a great atmosphere for reading. Librarians can also give good advice on book selection according to children's ages and interests.
