Family Night Activity: Progressive Story Writing Activity

Supplies Needed:

Notebook paper

Pencils/Pens

Timer

Get Started:

Give everyone a piece of paper and a writing utensil. Have everyone gather in a circle or around a table. Assign each person a different category to start writing a story on– comedy, mystery and so on, until everyone has their own category to start writing.

Set the timer for three minutes and everyone writes on their topic. After the three minutes is up, switch papers to the right. Re-set the timer for another three minutes and everyone continues to write on the storyline they’ve received.

Continue this until everyone has rotated the stories completely.

Gather all the stories and read them aloud.
