What are Walk-in Storybooks?

Walk-in Storybooks are large (5ft. tall), two-sided backdrops designed by artist Roxie Munro. They set the stage for learning through standards-based lessons, original plays, and an integrated web app. Watch kids' faces light up as they walk into an environment sized perfectly for them.

Included is an educator’s step-by-step “how-to” guide to help students of all learning styles. Whether a student learns by visual, audible, or an active experience, the phrase, “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn” holds true with these delightful storybooks.

Our Inspiration

It all began with a child's wish to have kid-sized books where she could become the character. This wish is now a reality! Calapitter Walk-in Storybooks will inspire imaginative role-play and storytelling for hours of creative fun. "I'm bored" is sure to become a phrase of the past.

Children's cognitive, social, and literacy skills improve dramatically with pretend play. A wide variety of themes are offered whereby kids can improvise, problem-solve, act out their own story, and become a character in one of our two-act plays (available with optional Playful Scripts curriculum).

We provide the settings and kids provide the stories. What child doesn't like to dress-up, be a hero, or tell a funny tale? Our storybooks offer life-size fun . . . it's where original stories happen.
