my speech and references



                          Fairytales are good for young children


                                              Introduction
 Don’t you think fairy tales are amazing? I definitely do. Fairy tales should be read to every child in the world in my opinion.  I’m sure that all of you listening have heard a fairy tale before right?. Fairy tales have good lessons that could help you in life when you are older. Fairy tales are entertaining, they help to develop imagination and creativity skills, they teach children morals and they teach kids to deal with conflict and emotions. Albert Einstein, a famous inventor once said, “If you want your child to be intelligent, read them fairy tales, if you want them to be more intelligent ,read them more fairy tales.”  Not only you can read fairy tales but you can also watch them, which makes the experiences of a fairy tale twice as much fun than they already are. Hopefully by the end of my speech you will be convinced that fairy tales are magnificent.


Fairy tales help to develop a child's imagination and their creativity skills
                             
 When children read or watch a fairy tale a burst of imagination comes into their brain and their creativity skills expand and expand.  When a child reads a fairy tale they gain new ideas and think of new creations that could work in their everyday lives. If you haven’t read a fairy tale, you’re missing out!  A child’s fantasy comes from imagination. They also use their creativity skills to think of weird and wonderful things. Now I'll tell you some fairy tales that will make your imagination grow. First of all, Cinderella. In this narrative a pumpkin turns into a carriage, mice turn into horses and a fairy godmother appears…. WOW.. what a world full of fantasy.  That’s not the only fairy tale, there are many more. Hansel and Gretel…. ahh….. a house made of gingerbread decorated with candy, sweets and chocolate... mmmm, boy I love chocolate!  Now the Gingerbread Man I mean a gingerbread man who can come to life and run away I’ve never seen that happen in my life. Finally Beauty and the Beast.  You're probably thinking what’s so imaginative about beauty and the beast? Well, I’ll tell you! There is a candle and a clock that come to life and sing and dance, the beast turns into a prince and at the end, all the tea cups, the clock, the candle, everything that talked in this narrative turns back into a human. 



                     Fairy tales are entertaining 
Fairy tales are full of fun they give you memories of times you read or watched your favourite one. This is why I think they are super entertaining. Having fun is the key when reading and watching a fairy tale. It takes you into the story, and you feel like your actually in the story when you’re just sitting in bed. You feel like the characters are there to see you and are talking with you. Don’t you think that’s fun? If fairy tales weren’t fun no one would read them. That would be disgraceful. Hopefully every time you read a fairy tale you can laugh or have fun in some way. Some fairy tales that are entertaining and made me laugh were the cat from puss n boots, when he was put in the movie shrek he said "How dare you do this to me, you four-legged bag of meat!" after he had fallen off donkey. When the princesses Cinderella and Snow White talk to animals I thought that was pretty entertaining.  

                Fairy tales teach children morals
 Fairy tales are jam packed with morals, which are technically lessons or messages that are taught.  They will teach you about wrong from right and messages on good and evil and love and loss which will  rub off on you. For example, Cinderella teaches you kindness towards all matters. In beauty and the beast, the reader is taught to be kind, even if someone looks different or they have disabilities you should be nice to anyone and everyone. Hansel and Gretel teaches you to be wary of strangers.  


They teach children to deal with conflict and emotions
Lastly, fairy tales help to teach children to deal with conflict and emotions.   You’re probably thinking, how do they help us with these things? well haven’t you seen characters cry in fairy tales haven’t seen them fight, if not this is for you. Conflict, there’s always a bit of conflict in fairy tales.  For example, in Sleeping Beauty, she had to fight off the wicked witch after she awoke from her snooze.Emotions everyone has them, especially some fairy tale characters. Characters can be sad, happy ,frustrated, depressed , angry and many more….. just like you. You can feel sad, happy or any emotion and you can deal with it by using what some of the characters did.


                                            Conclusion
Overall, I think that fairy tales are a wonderful thing!  They are good for younger children and everyone should read or watch them. They are entertaining, they help kids to develop their imagination and creativity skills, they teach children morals and help them deal with conflict and emotions. Hopefully you agree with what I have said.  Go and read or watch a fairytale NOW!!!
