This morning, I received the Fred Rogers Center for Early Learning and Children’s Media‘s monthly newsletter.  They have developed a free program where children can author their own stories.  They have a program for 0-3 year olds, as well as one for older preschoolers.  I think this may be worth exploring as the My Storymaker was voted one of the best websites for teaching and learning by the National Association of School Librarians.

Check it out.
