FAIRY TALES LEAD TO TRANSFORMATION

“If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”Albert Einstein

Children travel in their imagination to fantastical places especially  when reading fairy tales aloud.  Snow White, Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast are stories filled with characters such as elves, dwarfs , wicked queens , witches , talking frogs and dragons.In Cinderella, the story leaves no doubt; Cinderella is not where she wants to be. Her crisis ultimately leads to a transformation of circumstance. Children can also transform alongside the characters within each story. The power of fairy tales reaches deep into the  subconscious and can provide a hopeful answer in times of crisis.
