Stories & Printables

    As parents, teachers, and caregivers we yearn for a deep connection with our

    children and young adults.


    We want our children to be happy and successful but in order for this to happen we need to communicate with them in ways that they understand. We desire them to have positive values that enable them to navigate the complex, constantly changing world that we live in. 


    Children need creativity and courage to explore difficult emotions like anger, jealousy, sadness and fear. They also need inspiration and the opportunity to dream big and realise their dreams. This is what the right stories offer them. 


    Learning about life through stories allows children to grow into healthy, confident, kind adolescents (and eventually adults) who can handle anything that comes their way.

    The magic of storytelling allows us to achieve all this whilst having fun together as a family or community.

    Storytelling is as old as time and for very good reason.


    It has the power to build deep and long lasting relationships and memories. At Lignin Stories we believe that adding storytelling to your family or community rituals opens up doors like nothing else can.


    Our stories are specifically designed for all stakeholders of children and young adults, empowering adults to reach and influence them during this critical stage in development.


    Through our vast library of specially curated stories and programmes, you can create the family and community life that you dream of, easily and effectively in the time that you already spend together. 

    Communicate

    The practice of storytelling allows you to communicate openly and effectively with children and young adults. You gain priceless insight into their inner thoughts and feelings. You understand each other better and as a result your daily life together becomes more peaceful.

    Connect

    Storytelling enables you to instantly connect with children and young adults easily and effectively. It eliminates the need for discipline and enhances a healthy sense of belonging and happiness, through the shared values that the children inherit from you.

    Create

    Story-based rituals offer you the chance to create long-lasting memories that children and young adults will treasure forever. Whilst doing this you are also gifting them curiosity, creativity, and the courage to connect with themselves and the world around them in a wholehearted way.

    At Lignin Stories...


    Our mission is to empower all children and young adults to thrive in this complex and constantly changing world. 


    Our practice is foolproof - it effectively equips families, teachers, and caregivers with story solutions that transform obstacles into opportunities. It achieves our aim of raising all children up to their highest selves.

    Which would you rather gift your children?

    Belonging

    The opposite of belonging is isolation.

    Love

    The opposite of love is shame.

    Courage

    The opposite of courage is fear.


    Through Lignin Stories programmes and libraries, we teach you our unique storytelling method to change negativity into curiosity, isolation into belonging, shame into love and fear into courage.


    You have been looking for easy solutions to your family or community difficulties.


    Most probably you thought they would come to you one day in the future. You hope it will be soon. But, the truth is, they are already here and available to you. 

    ‘But, I am not a storyteller!’

    ‘But, I don’t know where to find stories, how they work or how to tell them.’

    Abracadabra...

    You are a storyteller.

    The moment that you turn inwards and tap into the song of your heart and the hope in your soul, you begin to live the story of your life and in this process you step into the true guide and mentor that your children need to grow.


    Discover the stories that already exist, the stories that are waiting for you to find them. Unlock their power and feel the joy that wells up as you witness your children and young adults growing as tall as the branches of the strongest tree and as deeply grounded as its roots. 

    Embrace your full mentoring power.


    Imagine your family, your community, living its best life

    every single day. 


    Feel the thrill run through you as the dream becomes a reality because you are taking the first step forward.

      Discover what people have to say about Lignin Stories

      Giuliana is the Michelangelo of parenting with stories. She brings out the beauty inside the rough surface of challenges for both parents and children. She lets the wisdom come from the participants, and brings to it her vast experience with stories,  her skill in navigating the waters of emotions, as she models unconditional love and nonjudgmental attitude.

      

      She also uses zoom masterfully, with efficient use of time that is respectful of parent's commitments,  I feel joyful, empowered, and excited to apply what I learned. Thumbs up, high five, and lots of love.

      

      -Christine Owen

      The workshop with Lignin stories helped me realize that there is a whole universe of possibilities in dealing with our children's fears and insecurities and aids us to help them feel less of whatever negative emotion that they might be clinging to.

      

      The support is great and on going!!

      

      -Ann Marie Camilleri

      I love the approach of Lignin Stories. It is definitely the new way of parenting children on the New Earth. All parents should have the storytelling tool to support their children to grow as a healthy emotional, physical, spiritual adults.

      

      This tool not only benefits our children it also helps heal our own inner child with playfulness and joy. Thank YOU!!!!

      

      -Ximena Vasquez Gomez

      Lignin is a great place for children and their guardians to participate in something different. The storytelling sessions are not only fun but they allow the participants to be part of a thought-provoking narrative; each story has underlying themes that help kids to better understand and talk about different aspects of growing up.

      

      -Jacob Piccinino

      Great storytelling, engaging, compelling and inspiring. My son loves it. He has become kind of a groupie of this Company.

      

      -Filomeno Santos

      Lignin Stories is imagination, love, connection, a way forward, community, seeking our own authentic answers together in a world of worrying questions. Giuliana is a woman with sensitivity, talent, a wonderful heart and a willingness to listen. A committed storyteller and activist. I strongly and warmly recommend her work ❤

      

      -Maja Bumberák

      Beautiful work! I was not sure what to expect when I walked in with the kids but we were immediately reassured by the friendly welcome and relaxed atmosphere. There was not one child (or parent) in the room who was not a part of this wonderful storytelling journey. On very few occasions did I see my kids so totally immersed and spellbound.

      

      -Nadia Zammit Verbeken

      Giuliana is highly trained and extremely passionate about her work. I have known her for many years both as a friend and as a fellow writer. We are both mothers and have discussed in great detail how empathy and kindness help children become better people. These storytelling programmes are an excellent way of reaching kids who might be struggling with some issue or other, they also help children to think creatively and learn skills to help themselves and others.

      

      Lignin  Stories is a wonderful new concept that will certainly help parents improve relationships with their kids. Well done to all the staff.

      

      -Mariella Camilleri

      Stories and storytelling have always been around; they've always been important whether we can acknowledge it or not. Right now more than ever, the lignin team are delivering connection and warmth. They are doing something important for children and adults alike. Thank you!

      

      -Miriam Calleja Shaw

      Lignin Stories brings back the magic of storytelling. Giuliana transports the children to another world and they get so involved. I would so highly recommend attending one of their events.

      

      -Liz Mahy

      From the moment a Lignin Storyteller starts a story, you know that you're in for a magical treat. Children and adults are invited to join the storytelling circle and after listening to a story (fantastically narrated and animated by Lignin's storytellers) they are asked to participate in various activities that shift the fantasy storyline into real social contexts. Highly recommend it. Join and find ways to speak about topics which are usually hard to tackle.

      

      -Arthur Dumas

      I have attended story-telling sessions for children with my son, I have attended story-telling workshops for teachers and I have completed a couple of online story-telling programmes. I have always come out with a sense of wonder, hope and a little magic. The stories are engaging and motivational, the workshops give you tools that make you want to go out and try them with your children and students and the programmes I followed with my son have given us a new way of communicating that I never thought possible. I definitely and highly recommend!!
