We're tickled with Robbie's story, and are delighted that your family is enjoying StoryBuilders so much. It's always nice for us moms to have a few tricks up our sleeves for those times when our kiddos need a diversion or a break from routine. Thanks for sharing!

My boys ( 10 and 8 ) have been having a blast with them and the fun just won't end. This very morning my guys asked me if we could "do those fun card things again!" Robbie is 8 and he looked a bit unsure as I had him draw 4 cards from the StoryBuilders Deck but as soon as we read his picks ( a concieted cowboy ,on a raft ,helps someone, breaking glass) we were giggling. Without a hitch, Robbie took off writing. Below is HIS story! "The conceited cowboy, who didn't have a horse because he was so conceited no one would sell one to him, was riding on his raft dreaming of a brown mustang. Suddenly he heard the sound of breaking glass. In his mind he jumped off his horse which was really his raft. SPLASH! THAT woke him up! He jumped up and ran toward the sound. He ran and ran and ran. FInally he found it. It was a store window. Then cowboy helped and the man who owned the store gave him a brown mustang! The End" Thanks, Kim, for such a great resource! It has certainly added some big smiles to our writing time these last weeks! Blessings, WendyB Kim- We LOVE StoryBuilders!
