Children’s Literature: Fairy Tales and Fables
Julie L Worthington asked:
For generations children have experienced fairy tales. plastic surgery . These fairy tales have been stories that have been used to teach lessons on good manners, respect, life, imagination and much more. Our young readers of today can probably recognize some of the wonderful fairy tales of the past but I'm afraid a lot of them are being left out of today's reading experiences. They will recognize The Little Mermaid by Hans Christian Anderson, Peter Pan by J. atlanta driveway company . M. Barrie and Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi because Walt Disney loved fairy tales and wanted to share them with the children of his generation and the children of generations to come. There are so many more fairy tales that he didn't get around to and may be lost to our young readers if we don't remind them that these wonderful stories, who seem like old friends to me, are out there. J. K. Rowling even made up fairy tales for her famous Harry Potter series which are very reminiscent of the cherished old stories that we need to revisit.
The following is a short list of some of the stories that I hope don't get forgotten along with their wonderful creators that I hope don't get forgotten either:
The Brothers Grimm
• The Elves and the Shoemaker
• The Town Musicians of Bremen
• The Pied Piper of Hamelin
Hans Christian Anderson
• The Most Incredible Thing
• Thumbelina
• The Ugly Duckling
• The Princess and the Pea
Aesop
• The Boy Who Cried Wolf
• The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse
• The Tortoise and the Hare
• The Ant and the Grasshopper
• The Lion and the Mouse
These wonderful writers told stories that helped nurture honesty, courage, hard work, self esteem and imagination. There are some writers or story tellers who have been forgotten such as the writer or story teller who created the story of The Little Red Hen which is one of my very favorites, all we know now about this story is that it began in Russia. I hope we can share and remember the great fairy tales we have with our young readers and help them to learn to love and appreciate the wonderful literature that is available to them. I have little tip for those who have a kindle or some other kind of e-reader, most of the fairy tales, fables, and folk tales can downloaded for free. I hope you have fun reconnecting with these old friends and sharing them with your young readers.

Visit the Sights and Settings of South Africa’s Most Famous Fairytales
Rachel Hill asked:
Many children the world over are read fairy tales and fantasy stories as they clamber into bed at night. We can all remember the fables of ogres, witches, dwarves and beasts that left us both enraptured and intrigued, and also too scared to turn the light off. Each country has its own set of fairy tales which have been passed down the generations, and Cape Town is no exception to this rule. So, though you might not be read a bedtime story whilst you're in South Africa, how can you still enjoy the fairytale and fantasy?
Overlanding on an Ostrich
Many of Cape Town's inhabitants will be familiar with the story of 'the Daughter of the Ostrich Egg.' This native fable tells the tale of a young man, Ohale, who found an ostrich egg and took it home to eat when the wind changed. However, from the egg stepped a beautiful young woman, who not only promised to marry Ohale but to turn him into a great chief who would rule over a tribe of warriors, on the simple condition that he never referred to her as the 'daughter of the ostrich egg.' For many months Ohale lived in splendour and comfort as the ruler of his tribe, his rags turned to furs and his hut turned into a royal dwelling, until one day too much to drink caused him to quarrel with his wife. In the course of the quarrel, he broke his promise, and the next morning he awoke to find himself sleeping under rags in his old hut, his tribe disappeared. Whilst you may not come across Ohale during your time in South Africa, you can still enjoy the idea of the ostrich egg. In Oudtshoorn, not too far from Cape Town, you will not only find the opportunity to sample the delights of ostrich meats and eggs in the restaurant, but you can also have a go at riding an ostrich. If you should really take to it there's even an ostrich derby, though this will really mean putting your money where your mouth is.
Between Rocks and Hard Places
'The Kingdom Above Earth' is a fairy tale about cannibals living up in the mountains behind great walls of rock. Though sounding scary, this story about a maiden who was captured and chased by a group of cannibals did have a happy ending fortunately, as the young girl was rescued from her spot high up a tree by her brother. However, if you're visiting Cape Town today, whilst you are unlikely to stumble across any man-eaters on your travels, you will be able to visit the areas where the characters from the story lived. Denver criminal attorney . Walking the pathways on and around Table Mountain you will pass many boulders, large rock faces and other formations which might well have been the hiding places of cannibals in years gone by.
Snakes and Dragons
There are seldom fairy tales that do not include snakes and dragons, and those originating from Cape Town are no exception. The tale of 'the snake with five heads' tells of the varying fortunes of two sisters, the first of which was complacent and idle, the second willing and kind. The first sister went off to marry a chief from a town far away, but found him to be a five-headed snake. Dissatisfied by her baking skills, the chief killed her and sought a new wife. The second sister heard of this and travelled to take up the position. Gate openers . When the chief tasted her cakes, made with caring and generous hands, he turned from a five-headed monster into a young human chief, a curse having been lifted. Though it may be wise to steer clear of snakes during your time in Cape Town, dragons are a completely different matter. Dragon boating is an energetic and popular sport in South Africa, and from the Victoria and Albert Waterfront you can watch the training sessions. If you're lucky, you might even time your visit with a regatta, and experience dragon boating at its finest.
So, if you enjoy fairytales and fantasy, brush up on your South African tales before you head to Cape Town, and you may be able to incorporate them into your trip.

Team Building Tips – The Power of Parables
Bill Hogg asked:
Parable: defined as a short simple story intended to illustrate a moral or religious lesson. These stories have been passed down from generation to generation through story-telling -- each story with its own significance and message.
What makes these messages so important is that a key message is embedded into the story, which illustrates or demonstrates the message. Modern fairy tales and fables often contain similar messages that help children learn accepted and wise behaviours.
Building a high-performance culture is no different.
When I am asked about my speaking -- I am quick to explain that I don't give speeches, I simply share stories or parables with a message that allow the audience to draw their own conclusions from the telling.
I share stories that demonstrate the critical success factors to developing a high-performance culture or customer service experiences that result from your culture not being right. As a business you can also use stores to better demonstrate the behaviours desired at your organization.
For example, recently one of my clients hosted a visit from Prince Charles and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto. When Prince Charles left for a business luncheon, the Duchess decided to extend her planned visit resulting in some quick adjustments.
One of those simple adjustments was the need for access to a clean washroom should there be a need for a bathroom break. casino online . Hearing this, the General Manager for the facility and the Director of Sales staked out a convenient washroom to ensure it was clean and reflected well on the facility. Fortunately, for all concerned a bathroom visit was not required and all was well.
Similarly, another client tells the story about a sales agent visiting a customer who remarked about the shininess of their shoes. They next trip, the sales agent brought a tube of the special polish they used for the customer as a gift. Both stories demonstrate behaviours that their respective organizations want demonstrated; taking ownership of a problem regardless of your official role or listening and going the extra mile for a customer.
So think about stories -- or parables -- within your organization that demonstrate your values and desired behaviours. Look for opportunities to add emotional impact. Dig deeper to find the hook that will make the story -- and therefore the message -- memorable.
If you have real stories that demonstrate behaviours you want to see modeled in your organization attributes, especially when imbued with emotional impact, they are priceless. Use them to communicate your core values and service principles in a memorable manner so everyone in the organization understands expectations.
And reward people who demonstrate these behaviours with recognition by becoming the star of a future story. If your business has been operating any length of time, you already "own" success stories. no deposit bonus . Now's the time to did them out and put them to work.
