Learning through stories!
Explore, Enjoy, Learn…
There’s a fascinating story behind almost everything we see.
Wouldn’t learning be so much more fun if it was designed to help us uncover these stories? Stories that help us connect the dots, form a pattern and make sense of facts and figures?
At Storytrails we know that storytelling can be a powerful learning aid if used imaginatively. We aim to make children lifelong learners by sparking an interest in a subject. Each of these workshops is an interactive melange of storytelling, dramatised reading, word games, discussions and debates. The workshops are designed to get children to express their own views as also to appreciate another’s viewpoint.
The Storytrails workshops for children cover a wide range of subjects. Showcasing India through her stories has been at the heart of Storytrails work since 2007. And many of the stories that feature in its award-winning walking tours, find a place in the Exploring India and festival series of workshops. Then there are workshops on World history, books, language and storytelling – subjects that our team of writers live and breathe. For over 12 years, Storytrails has worked with schools across the social spectrum, engaging thousands of children on trails and workshops related to general and social awareness. Many of these programmes are now available in an online format, with exciting new titles getting added every month.

Lesser known tales of India's freedom Struggle
This workshop is about freedom fighters whose tales are quietly tucked away amongst the pages of Indian History. Did you know that there was a queen in South India who defied the British a couple of centuries before ideas of freedom became popular? Or of a stubborn Englishman who was determined to publish the truth, even if his fellow men did not approve? Or exactly where Khadi featured in India’s freedom struggle? Join us as we uncover these interesting tidbits and more.
