Stories....the food for childhood dreams.....Childrens Entertainer Dublin...
I have been telling stories since I could talk! I would entertain my cousins and siblings with hours of stories, with the help of barbie-dolls, baby-dolls and teddy bears!
Imagination and creativity are the magic of childhood - my dream is to remind as many children as I can that they have this magic hidden inside their own heads. With their imagination, they can be transported anywhere at any time. Perhaps if enough children are reminded of their own MAGIC they will be happier, kinder adults? I know it's a challenging dream to have - but I know I can do it!

Halloween Storytelling with the help of my friendly bird!
Storytelling sessions are suitable for small groups (house parties, community centres etc) or larger groups (schools, festivals, special events), there is an emphasis on reading, imagination and the magic of books.
Sessions Involve:
* Interactive stories, using puppets and props as well as books
* Magic Performance
* Songs, rhymes & music
* Encouragement of kids to use their voices, imaginations to build stories, memory skills & coordination
* Unique costumes, colourful and eye-catching
It never ceases to amaze me just how much I can learn from children. Each time I do a storytelling session, they teach me something new – they help me add to the magic of my storytime, by adding something new, by telling me what they think might happen next in my stories. And afterwards, during our questions and answers time, the children will always ask me at least one question I’ve never heard before. And, the best part of all, is the number of children who truly believe in fairies....and not only believe in them, but most have SEEN one too! I get asked all sorts of questions by the children about the magical world of storytime and I have an answer for all of them. Those answers are precious and dear to all children and are precious and dear to me too. It makes me so happy to be Kids Storytelling Ireland and Childrens Entertainer Dublin.
