Children at the Centre: Exploring StoryWeb Relationships across Home and ECE
Amanda White
Early Childhood Folio, v28 n1 p18-23 2024
Stories are a way that children under 3 years of age learn to share meaning with others. Most research with this age group has focused on 1:1 parent-child story relationships at home, largely book reading. These studies have positioned children in the role of story listeners rather than story tellers. Here, I explore new possibilities about the nature of story roles and relationships spanning home and early childhood education settings. I present a StoryWeb model to make visible the multiple ways that 1-year-old toddlers were actively engaged in weaving stories with others in a culturally and linguistically diverse community.
