I'd like to start a portion of my blog with crafts and creative ideas called... getting creative. One of the things I can see myself doing on a regular basis, taking it back to middle school, is a journal prompt. Let's get those creative juices flowing.
Write a children's story. The title of the story will be "If my cat ran the news". You can make it as long or as short as you want. Children's stories are typically pretty short. This is to keep young readers interested, so if you aren't writing for anyone but yourself and the words are flowing, go nuts. It doesn't have to be professional, it is just intended to get you thinking out of the box. In fact, make up your own title if you would like. Try using another animal in an uncharacteristic situation.
It would be so cool if my cat ran the news.
The dressing room would be filled with scratching posts and yarn.
He would have to wear a cat suit and a little cat tie. There would be lost people posters instead of lost pet posters, If my cat ran the news.
If my cat ran the news, he would be distracted by all of the camera lights and wires that looked like the yarn from his dressing room. He would play with the wires until he chewed right through and made the power go out.
No one could watch the news if the power went out. We couldn't see the weather, if there were no news. How would we know if there were snow days?
Maybe it wouldn't be so cool if my cat ran the news.
