Small Stories captures the voice, imagination and personality of young children at a special moment in time.

Children change quickly. The things they say, the way they see the world, the people they talk about, the little phrases they use and the dreams they have can be forgotten all too easily as they grow. Small Stories helps preserve those moments in a simple, joyful and meaningful way.

Using gentle, age-appropriate questions, children are invited to share what they love, who matters to them, what makes them laugh, what they enjoy doing, what they want to be when they grow up and how they see the world right now.

The process is designed to feel relaxed, safe and child-friendly. It is not about perfect answers or polished performances. It is about capturing personality, honesty, imagination and the little details families will treasure in years to come. Small Stories can be used by nurseries, pre-schools, reception classes and schools as a special leavers’ project, family keepsake, confidence-building activity or intergenerational storytelling project.

Stories can be captured through short video clips, audio recordings, written answers, drawings, photographs or simple keepsake formats.

For families, Small Stories creates a beautiful memory of who their child was at that exact age. For nurseries and schools, it offers a meaningful way to celebrate the children in their care and create something families can keep.

A child’s answers might be funny, thoughtful, surprising or wonderfully simple — and that is exactly the point.

Ideal for:

Nurseries, pre-schools, reception classes, schools, leavers’ projects, family keepsakes, early years celebrations, confidence-building activities and intergenerational storytelling projects.
