Hello, I'm Laura Shea.

Ā 

I've always loved early literacy deveopment, storytelling, and play, but I did not realizeĀ how interconnected these things were. Until I found Vivian Paley's work. Everything changed when I began implementing storytelling and storyacting with the children in my classrooms. The magicĀ that unfolds is something I want you to experience too!

My Story

I grew up hearing stories told from my family. With disjointed memories, oral stories of my life helped me tremendously. Not only that, but I loved connecting with the adults in my life as they told me stories.

Ā 

As I entered into the early childhood world, I found the power of stories for young children was just as strong. I began embracing storytelling and storyacting. Children gravitated towards me whenever I pulled out my storytelling notebook and began to ask "do you want to tell me a story?"
