Story Antics Launches Kickstarter Campaign for First of its kind, Personalised Recipe Storybooks

SYDNEY - March 2, 2020 - PRLog -- Today, personalised storybook company, Story Antics launches a $10,000 Kickstarter campaign for its personalised recipe storybook series, the first of its kind to market, a conceptual gamechanger for the personalised children's book industry.

Written by Amy Whiteford, the voice behind Healthy Little Foodies the series will feature six different storybooks suitable for children aged three to 10, with each title offering a different healthy recipe story for aspiring little chefs to read and create in the kitchen.

"This Kickstarter campaign is vital to help raise the funds needed to deliver this storybook series to children across the world. We're endeavouring to create a reading experience that is educational and fun," said Lara Solomon, founder of Story Antics.

"Cooking with children has so many benefits. It is a life skill that can help to form adventurous and healthy eaters. Time in the kitchen can also assist with fine motor skills, literacy, numeracy, science and creativity. Lastly, having fun in the kitchen can build relationships and confidence," said Whiteford.

"These personalised recipe books are a fun and different way to get cooking with your children. The story-based recipe and beautiful illustrations just add to the experience, making it easier for both children and adults to follow along."

With recent industry research indicating that kindergarten to year 12 students who average a daily reading time of less than 15 minutes are exposed to an average of 1.5 million words compared to the 5.7 million words for those children who read for 15-29 minutes, the importance of regular reading is again in the spotlight.

"As the prevalence of technology is only increasing, it's becoming progressively common to see that time spent reading books is falling by the wayside. It's imperative as parents, teachers and caregivers that we continue to educate and open young minds to the intellectual and creative benefits of reading. It's a love that lasts a lifetime," said Solomon.

"This new series from Story Antics is fantastic; the recipe storybooks are procedural texts as well as hybrid texts which means the stories give children steps to follow, which is great for them from a learning perspective," said Melbourne schoolteacher, Annie Sweet.
