Dive into an ocean of imagination with the Story Stones – Under the Sea set, where storytelling comes alive through tactile and beautifully illustrated resources. This set of 13 durable stones features a range of underwater-themed characters, settings, and objects, colour-coded into subsets to support the development of narrative structure. Children can randomly select or deliberately choose stones to create their own stories, such as imagining how the clown fish stole Neptune’s pearl or how the octopus read a message in a bottle to rescue the mermaid queen. Made from a stone and resin mix, each piece is designed to withstand enthusiastic play, indoors or out. These stones encourage oral language, story sequencing, creativity, and cooperative play, making them an excellent addition to any literacy centre or imaginative play space. Designed for sensory appeal and long-term use, they are easy to clean and safe for young learners. By combining visual cues with open-ended prompts, these stones create endless storytelling opportunities in an engaging, screen-free format.
