Fun Writing Prompts for Kids This Summer
Summer is a fantastic time for kids to unleash their creativity, and what better way to do that than through writing? Writing prompts can be a great tool to inspire kids and keep them engaged during the sunny months. Plus, we have some exciting resources to make their summer even more productive and enjoyable!
Get Inspired with Writing Prompts
Writing prompts are a wonderful way to kickstart your child’s imagination. Here are a few fun prompts to get them started:
- “Imagine you’re a pirate on a treasure hunt. Describe your adventure and what you find.”
- “Write a story about a day when you wake up with superpowers.”
- “Describe a world where animals can talk and have their own city.”
- “What if you could visit any place in history? Where would you go and what would you do?”
- “Write about a summer day where everything goes magically right.”
These prompts can help kids get over the blank page hurdle and start writing their own incredible tales.
Track Your Reading and Writing
To complement their writing, our Free Summer Reading Log can help kids track the books they read. Reading a variety of books can provide great inspiration for their writing. By keeping a log, they can look back on the stories they’ve read and see how they influence their own storytelling. You can download our free reading log to get started.
Publish Your Stories
At KBM we offer a publishing service called Kids Corner Authors, where we help young writers bring their stories to life. Once your child has crafted a story they’re proud of, they can submit it to us for a chance to be published. Seeing their work in print can be a huge confidence booster and a great reward for their hard work.
Summer Reading Recommendation
