Children's Storytelling
1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
For centuries, Native American
tribes throughout America have shared their stories. We
invite kids to join us at the NACIP Children's Corner and
listen to ancient stories from the Navajo, the Abenaki Indians,
Ute, Cherokee, and many more. Storytellers may use music,
puppetry, humor and dialogue to engage listeners. Colorful
renderings will be shown by Native American artists who
have illustrated colorful and beautiful pages. In this setting
you're welcome to listen, touch and feel the legends and
stories of the past.
To begin our program at
1:00 p.m., Sybil McCook, Miss Ute Tribe 2006, will share
stories from her culture. Here is a message from her:
