The first days of school are a great time to get kids interested in creative writing. These school-time creative writing prompts will kickstart your child’s imagination.

Sometimes getting kids motivated to do creative writing assignments is tough. They might find it hard to come up with topics.
For some, it might seem too tedious, especially if they don’t really enjoy the topics.
These imaginative writing prompts will capture your child’s interest and give them a great place to start.
This collection includes twenty different story prompts. Each prompt is unique and will have your child spinning a creative story in no time.
One prompt is about finding an old diary in the eaves of an attic. Your child will decide who wrote the diary and tell a story about them.
Another fun prompt says a strange chest full of goodies was found in your child’s favorite video game. Your child will describe what is in it and how it will help them win!
An adorable gnome (or two) is featured on each page. Every gnome is different and is accessorized for back to school days.
