THE STORYTELLER PROGRAM
A Jr. Storyteller is someone who brings stories to life for kids anywhere! Usually at places like schools, libraries, and even virtual storytelling online. Our proven methods keep kids engaged and learning, and our storytellers often are asked to return again and again!
Great with kids? Weirdly good at silly voices? Jr. Storytellers might be your dream gig in disguise.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, educator, performer, or just a parent with passion and a little hustle - - you can earn extra income or level up to become a Master Storyteller.
