My nieces love hearing stories from the past from my parents. This brings them closer together and my nieces learn about their ancestors and feel connected to a collective past. Sometimes I participate in the telling of the stories because I can learn something new or I can add to the story. This storytelling generates questions from my nieces and is a wonderful bedtime tradition.
