  • Printer (with ink)

How to Use Early Creative Writing Prompts with Kids

As an English major, creative writing is one of my passions.

There’s just something about putting pencil to paper (or fingers to keyboards, these days) and starting off down a road of creative thought.

Preschool Spring Writing Prompts

You kind of have an idea of where you’d like to go, but you’re always surprised at the things you come up with along the way.

Writing Stories for Preschoolers

The same is true with little writers!

Open-ended questions give them a chance to put their imaginations to work. And, after all, writing without imagination is like…like…not writing at all.

Each of these spring creative writing prompts has a line for kids to finish the sentence. At the bottom, there’s a box for them to draw a picture of what they wrote.

This spring, Piglet wants to play basketball. That’s her shooting the ball into the hoop in the picture.

Writing about Spring with Preschoolers

I will say that I had to read the sentence out to her and help her spell the words. The rest she did herself.

Working on Story Predictions with Preschoolers

After each initial prompt is a second page asking kids to write what they think will happen next.

This is a simple way to introduce creative writing to preschoolers: ask them to come up with an image and then predict what might happen afterward.

Completed Preschool Story Prompts

Piglet’s answer to what will happen after she plays basketball was: “Bounces”.

Naturally, she drew a picture of the ball bouncing after falling through the net.

Hmmm….what to do next? Color the pictures!

And that’s what she did. She was so proud of her work that she gave her masterpieces to her older siblings.

This was a fun (and quick) language arts lesson for her.

We spent about 15 minutes on one of the prompts and she got to practice handwriting, creative writing, art, phonics, and spelling – all in one activity!
