📜 The Three Laws of Six Word Wonder Magic

Think writing a story in six words is easy? It’s like trying to fit a whole dragon into a lunchbox! To make the magic work in the Six Word Kids Writing Lab, every Story Wizard must follow these three ancient laws:

1. The Power of Six 🖐️☝️

Your story must have exactly six words. Not five (that’s just a sentence), and not seven (that’s too chatty!). Each word is like a precious gem—choose them carefully to make your story shine.

2. The “Big Bang” Rule 💥

Since you only have six words, you can’t waste time on boring stuff. Start right in the middle of the action!

• Boring: “I went to the big park.” (Yawn…)
• Magic: “Visited park. BORED… Found a T-rex!” (Whoa!)

3. Punctuation is Your Wand! 🪄

Did you know that periods, commas, and exclamation points don’t count as words? You can use them to add pauses, excitement, or mystery without “spending” your six words.

• Example: “Monster under bed! Actually, he’s scared.”

Wizard Tip: If your story is too long, try cutting out words like “the,” “and,” or “a.” It makes your story feel faster and more exciting! 🚀

What Six Word Story could you write with the lab?
