All Year Round Write a Story Prompts
Story writing prompts are a great way to spark creativity and help early learners build confidence with words. Whether they’re just starting to form sentences or already love making up stories, prompts give them a simple starting point to let their imagination shine.

Benefits of Story Writing Prompts for Kids
- Encourage creativity by offering fun, open-ended ideas.
- Build confidence by taking the pressure off coming up with a story from scratch.
- Support literacy skills like sequencing, vocabulary development, and expressive writing.
- Make writing fun, turning it into a game or adventure instead of a chore.
Themes include, Winter, Spring, Back to School, Halloween, Fall, Thanksgiving, St. Patrick’s Day, Valentines Day, Christmas and Summer.

Each printable worksheet also features an image to encourage the creative juices to flow and optionally color in if the mood strikes.
The themes all have a “word bank” that kids use to construct their story with. At the very bottom of the page is a reminder to watch capitalization, spelling, punctuation and forming of a complete sentence.
