I have to write a children’s story about WW1. We can, i guess you could say "parody" a different children’s story to make it more youthful. An example i had in mind was "the boy who cried war", instead of the boy who cried wolf. Do you have any interesting ideas? Please help.
How about "The Three Little Pigs?" Instead of the Big Bad Wolf, Germany tries to huff and puff and blow Europe’s houses down. You can use the concepts of the building materials (straw, sticks, and bricks) as metaphors; straw and sticks are the first (unsuccessful) attempts by the countries initially opposing Germany, but the bricks represent the success of the countries united (Entente) in defeating Germany.
Good luck!

If they were thief and murders
The pirates and highwaymen of children’s stories are related to the real lecherous, murderous villains only in that they borrow on a kinder, gentler version of their vocational reputation. As a group they are notoriously disrespectful of authority and most possibly of questionable morals. However, least we be guilty of judging others unknowingly, we soon find the victims are actually the victimizers. Be they the greedy heads of European government’s pilfering the wealth of the New World or the corrupt Sheriff of Nottingham abusing the citizenry in the absence of the king. Who will stand for the innocent when authority is abused? The moral of the story is there for the children to discover and assimilate.

There are cultural, emotional and language benefits that come from stories for children, but what do you think children gain from stories?? What emotional benefits, what cultural benefits and what language benefits? Stories can explain difficult concepts to children, they can comfort them when they are upset and they can teach the new words and how to use them, but what do you think? Sorry for the large scope of the question, but any opinion or help is welcomed.
If your child loves books, they love stories. The emotional engagement shown by a child shown his or her future behavior. They gain knowledge, patience, perseverance and acceptance thru engagement by stories.
The effect of this, thru studies, found that children who like stories grow mature much faster than their peers. You are lucky if your child happen to love stories – and books.

I would like to know your purpose of Early Childhood Education.
The purpose of Early Childhood Education is to prepare students for formal education. It used to be that parents did this at home. However, nowadays parents are not doing that and students are entering kindergarten unprepared for school. ECE prepares them so that they can hit the ground running.
