Here’s what we’d do

Use four boxes to tell a tiny fictional story, with stick figures fully welcome. A small format gives the activity a finish without requiring artistic confidence. Participants can work alone or pair a storyteller with someone who enjoys drawing.

How to make it happen

Go at your own pace.

  1. Before inviting

    Choose the practical details

    Choose a simple prompt and provide blank panels on ordinary paper.

  2. The shared part

    Give the activity room

    Plan the beginning and ending first, then fill the two middle moments.

  3. A good ending

    Finish at the agreed pace

    Share comics voluntarily and ask permission before copying or posting them.
