Storybooks
Gigantic 5-foot tall backdrops set the stage for plays and kids’ own stories
Walk-in Storybooks are large (5ft. tall), two-sided backdrops designed by artist Roxie Munro. They set the stage for learning through standards-based lessons, original plays, and an integrated web app. Watch kids' faces light up as they walk into an environment sized perfectly for them.
Included is an educator’s step-by-step “how-to” guide to help students of all learning styles. Whether a student learns by visual, audible, or an active experience, the phrase, “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn” holds true with these delightful storybooks.

The above video refers to K.I.W.i. Storybooks, which was the original product name. Now all product lines include the company name, Calapitter Creations.
It all began with a child's wish to have kid-sized books where they could become the character. This wish is now a reality! Calapitter Walk-in Storybooks™ will inspire imaginative role-play and storytelling for hours of creative fun. "I'm bored" is sure to become a phrase of the past.
Children's cognitive, social, and literacy skills improve dramatically with pretend play. A wide variety of themes are offered whereby kids can improvise, problem-solve, act out their own story, and become a character in one of our two-act plays (available with optional Playful Scripts curriculum).
We provide the settings and kids provide the stories. What child doesn't like to dress-up, be a hero, or tell a funny tale? Our storybooks offer life-size fun . . . it's where original stories happen.
