I decided to create a story on the website, Storybird and here is my experience!

Storybird allows you to create an account for free for 6 days. After the 6 days are up you must pay to upgrade the account in order to continue. I like this because you can see if you like Storybird and would like to continue using it before paying!

Storybird is quite easy to use as the website guides you into making your first story! The website allows you to use artwork that other users publish or create your own! The artwork was super cute and could definitely be used for a story in a class of younger kids! The artwork given was limited but can definitely be utilized for a short story.

Adding text to the story was easy. The site allows you to choose between a few different fonts as well.

I decided to create my story about being an only child. I tried to cater my story towards the Pre-k- 3rd-grade level.

I could not embed my story to Storybird since I only had the free version of the account. However, here are pictures of the story I made about the benefits of being an only child:

Overall, I think Storybird is a great online tool but in order to use all features, a paid account must be created. In the future, I may create stories for my classroom using this site or choose to explore another site!
