Children live the fantasy to the deepest images and the moment you tell them a story it is impossible not to feel it to the bone. They climb with Jack on the bean bush, they feel the pain next to the grumpy bear when its tail is cut off, they feel the joy of the prince when Snow White escapes alive and marries her and they feel many other stories that don't even they are so established, but they simply attract them.

The stories, no matter how little fiction they have in them and no matter how poorly constructed, can enjoy the sympathy of the children who will always be there to rewrite them. Perhaps the most beautiful stories for children remain the classics "The Little Prince", "The Lady and the Tramp", "101 Dalmatians", "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs", "Cinderella", "Jack and the Beanstalk", " 1001 Nights "," Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp "etc.

But these seem to be too much of a thing of the past, considering the multitude of children's stories that have appeared in the last decade, light stories, invented stories, true stories, which most of the time can bring you closer to your little one.

The best times to tell a story

There are times when you have to communicate a lot with your little one. Stories help him develop his imagination and believe strongly in dreams, children's stories make him realize that there is a fairytale world and they make him see the world in which he lives without bad things, for that good always wins.

And so it should remain. At least childhood should be devoid of rational foundations, to remain a threshold beyond worldly evils and a land full of fantasies. The best time to read a story to your child is the night before bed because they then draw the enchanted world of stories into the delirium of sleep. Little ones need much more fantasy stories, even if they are pure unreality, but they are preferable to violent cartoons.

Even more beautiful is when you can read to your little one a story full of charm that also contains illustrated pictures of events or you can play with him. Children's stories, in addition to developing their imagination, also have the beneficent talent to put them to sleep, leaving them to dream and at the same time make them believe in the power of good.

Many studies have shown that a child who does not live the world of fairy tales, in addition to not living his childhood, adolescence or adulthood will not be too optimistic. It's amazing how much our stories can metamorphose in the first years of life.

Another good time to tell your little one a story is either in the woods when you go with your family or in the mountains or at sea, especially when you make a campfire and sing and maybe gather more children around the fire, thus succeeding. to give everyone a fairytale atmosphere.

The most beautiful stories that can bring you closer to children

Although stories are now available in more and more versions, including audio or animated, nothing is more beautiful and does not create a stronger closeness between parent and child than telling a story before bed. There is also the option to put the audio story and you to play with him/her with the dolls. But the most beautiful stories for children are the following:

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, is a magical story that will show your child that no matter how strong the evil is, all good wins. At the same time, through this story, she will learn what diligence and love for her siblings and her mother are, because after all, Snow White was like a mother to her dwarfs.

Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp is a story that will make your little one believe in magic and the power of the word, but it will also help him discern between good and evil.

Alice in Wonderland is a story full of magic that will surely make your little one dream and believe in a world full of chocolate and candy, which can do him both good and bad.

1001 Nights is an action-packed book that will show your little one what the bad people who steal and what the poor young men who suffer have a good soul, full of humility, suffer.

These are certainly the most beautiful stories for children, which in turn have marked our childhood, but the multitude of stories that have appeared in the last decade, full of modernity, can overshadow them. But still, nothing is better than a classic story.
