Class Clown
In 2005, two kids named Ricky and Drew from Ed Cody Elementary School sent me a CD movie that they had MADE THEMSLEVES. It was a show about why I should visit San Antonio. I thought it was really neat that they had MADE IT THEMSELVES, and I decided to visit the school.

We Share EVERYTHING!
In 1990 my daughter Tyya, the kid in SOMETHING GOOD, was in Royal City Nursery School. I often went there to tell stories. On April 19, I made up a really lousy story about two kids who did not want to share the blocks. It went over very well!

Wait and See
Wait and See started out as two separate stories that I made up in 1985. One was about Olivia who made pancakes for her family. The other story did not have a particular kid attached to it.

Up, Up, Down
UP-UP-DOWN started as a finger play that I used with children in a program for 2 and 3 year old kids. All it was in the beginning was a game where I would go: “ up-up-up-up-up-up- faaaaaalllllll DOWN”, while I raised my hands and then fell down.

Thomas’ Snowsuit
Thomas’ Snowsuit was made up in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
I was talking to teachers about how to tell stories. Somebody said “Hey Bob Munsch, would you like to tell some stories to kids in daycare?” I said that would be nice.
