Kamishibai is Japanese for ‘paper theatre’, tales told by travelling story tellers, using pictures.

Make up a new story, or add to an old one, see it told on the small stage. Or, for more modern children, why not ‘upload’ a picture onto the grubby screen of our ‘Slightly Sad I Pad’?

Paper, card, pens, glue, scissors and inspiration provided.
