Stories are a powerful medium that can shape minds. There is something about storytelling that arrests our attention. Children, especially, love listening to stories. It helps spark their power of imagination and leaves them intrigued with many things.

As a parent, you would surely love to share all the stories that you heard from your parents and grandparents, right? And as you narrate those stories of fairies, saints, kings and queens, it would bring back the sweet memories to your mind. Such is the power of stories; they leave a forever impression on your minds. And, you can be sure that it would do the same to your loved ones.

If your children too are fond of stories and not just listening to them but also have an imaginative mind to make their own stories, you must encourage their skill and talent and let them immerse themselves in their imaginary world. Also, you can give them a chance or a platform to express their minds and share their stories with the world.

If you are wondering how? Well, at Club Mahindra, we have collaborated with Guppy Stories, one of the leading story gaming apps in India. It is an app that lets kids immerse themselves in the big adventure, create their own stories, and give it a twist and turn of their choice.

The app provides a safe space for children to express their minds freely and lets their young, imaginative minds take centre stage. It also lets them expand their thinking skills and share their beautiful creations with loved ones.
