There's a card game called Once Upon a Time.

It's designed to be a collaborative story telling game. Each player has a hand of cards, each containing a story element (character, item, etc.). They also have a one-sentence ending. One player at a time is the narrator and is trying to play out their hand by fitting each card into the story and landing on their pre-defined ending. The power of narration changes hands through an interrupt system.

That game would be easily converted into a writing prompt generator. Just deal kids a few cards and an ending, and tell them to turn that into a fairy tale. The best part is that it would be randomized, so you don't have to think of a pile of ideas on your own.

I do a bit, but I haven't had time to play much the last few months. I'm more likely to indulge in a video game at the moment, and have been hooked on FTL lately (thank you, Steam sale!). It's more of a card game, but I really enjoy playing Once Upon a Time with my writers group. The point is to use the cards you've been dealt (characters, events, settings, etc) to turn the story around to your "ending". Watching a bunch of writers try to stretch the tale to make sense is hilarious.

Yes, I do. So does the rest of the world. Your taste buds are wrong, Ball, WRONG!

Once Upon a Time has nothing to do with the tv show- the game was originally published in 1994 after all.

And the cookie is something I made up off of a variation of https://sweets.seriouseats.com/2013/12/the-food-lab-the-best-chocolate-chip-cookies.html

Only remove chocolate chips, and introduce caramel. But that recipe is gold, regardless.

Aww. That's sad. It seemed like something you might enjoy.

Have you ever played Once Upon A Time?

I started playing D&D when I was 7. I've been enjoying it (and the general fantasy zeitgeist) for 12 years now. It was a jumping point for actually caring about math, writing skills, interpersonal skills, puzzle solving, critical thinking...

I think Dungeonworld might be solo based?

I cannot recommend Once Upon a Time more. I've bought it twice. It's a card-based storytelling game where every player cooperates to tell the same continuous narrative, but everyone has a different ending to reach and different cards to play. If you think your 7 year old likes telling stories I think it's a great investment.

And it scales from 2 to (I think) 9 players, although once you pass ~5 it starts to get silly. There's expansions focused on specific fairy tale genres, like knights saving princesses or pirates fighting squids.

its a lot of fun and a nice way to test out your creativity in telling short stories. There are also story games that have helped me to organize my thoughts better. There's two of them I highly recommend: Once Upon a Time ( https://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Games-ATG1030-Once-Upon/dp/1589781317 ) and The Fool's Journey ( https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/154421/The-Fools-Journey ). Its great if you can play with people who are excellent story tellers.
