Course Description
This is a stand-alone e-course that can also be used as a prequel to the course How to Create and Record Audio Memoirs for your Grandkids & Loved Ones.
The goal of this course is to teach you everything you need to know about choosing age appropriate and subject matter appropriate stories and books to read and/or record for your grandchildren. Stories for babies, toddlers, elementary aged children and teens are covered in this course.
You will also learn how to search for copyright-free stories online, the difference between Public Domain and Creative Commons, and what stories you can and cannot legally record in audio format.
This course provides links to free stories online, and gives you some story topic suggestions with grandma and grandpa as the subject, to get you started.
Also included is a Grandchild Reference Sheet that you can download and fill out as you go through the course.
