Welcome, parents, teachers, daycare aides, and lovers of the Arts! Stage Ready Tales for Creative Youth aims to guide you in using couplets as a multifaceted tool for child and adult entertainment, skill development, and enjoyment. Many of our stories are based on Aesop's Fables, and written as live stage scripts. Whether you're reading aloud at home, facilitating a classroom activity, nurturing public speaking skills, or performing a production, these couplets can foster creativity and confidence in young and older minds and inspire creativity in sharing entertaining messages.
