Sky Surfing Spectacular - Uplifting Stories for Kids

Send voice or text msgHigh above the Folktale Forest, teams of geese, sparrows, falcons and seagulls show off their best stunts in the annual sky surfing competition. With flips, spins, swirls, and daring dives, the teams dazzle the cheering crowds and impress the judges. When a member of the Sky Soaring Seagulls gets injured mid-flight, the team’s hopes rest on Shrimp, the nervous fifth alternate’s out-of-town swing’s understudy (try saying that five times fast). Worried he’ll let his teammates down, Shrimp learns from an unexpected source that even the wobbliest wings can still do wonderful things. Go to the episode webpage: https://jonincharacter.com/sky-surfing-spectacular/    DOWNLOAD COLOR PAGE: https://bit.ly/dorktalesEP117colorpage         GRAB YOUR FREE PDF list of conversation questions for this episode: https://dorktalesstorytime.aweb.page/ep117freePDF PARENTS, TEACHERS AND HOMESCHOOLERS: In this story, young listeners hear that bravery doesn’t mean being fearless, it means trying your best even when you’re nervous.
