Telling Tales: Creative Writing for Kids
Exeter Library, Exeter, EX4 3PQ
Wednesday 5th August 2026 - Friday 28th August 2026
This Summer Holidays we're running another Telling Tales! A free storytelling and writing workshop that's Ideal for ages 6 - 11
75 mins of great games and fun prompts to get you making stories, writing & sharing.
Led by Chris (Library staff member, founder of Spork! Poetry and former Bard of Exeter)
These sessions are themed around journeys, travel and transport. Inspired by adventure stories like The Faraway Tree or Around the World in 80 Days, we'll be jetting off to imaginary lands, making up new methods of travel and messing around with words to make our own stories and poems come to life
A fun and hands-on session that's open to all, even if you don't normally like to write.
Places are free, please book 1 ticket for each child attending. Grown-ups should ideally stay for the session (and join in!)
The session will take place on the 2nd floor of Exeter Library in the Rougemont Room
Both sessions will be pretty much the same!
