Funny Short Stories Rock!

Funny short stories, so cool, you bet they are! This form of writing is one of the toughest. The whole idea is to have a punch line in mind before you begin. That rarely happens when a child starts to write. The idea for you, as a parent, is to encourage better planning and the thinking that goes into the stories.

Everything about timing, characters, the Five W's

pencil character all come into play.

I dare you. No, I double dare you to make us laugh!

It won't be easy, I know, cuz we come from different times.

The trick is to write about something we have in common. Something we, kids and adults, know about equally.

In many ways, that can mean something adults complain about but it's in fashion, like a fad, for the teen.

When your third grader is really keen on something, chances are you might roll your eyes about it, but don't.
