Inspire Creativity with April Writing Prompts

This month includes prompts that will require a little research to study more about some historical events or personalities.

For instance, National Winston Churchill Day and Thomas Jefferson Day.

On the flip side, we have prompts that will tickle those imagination wheels like National Animal Crackers Day, National Garlic Day, and National Pigs In A Blanket Day!

Your kids will also get to write about Earth Day this month (inspire them by sharing these Earth Day puns and jokes before they write this day!).

Why write?

These creative writing prompts are more than just another activity to cross off on the list of academic things your child should do.

They’re a great way to get kids excited about writing, fuel creativity, strengthen a child’s vocabulary, and help develop strong literary communication skills that will be an incredible asset when your child is older. 

By planting the seed of a love of writing in your child, you help grow a tree with strong foundations in today’s world.

If your child has never been introduced to creative writing, then there’s no better time like now to get those creative juices flowing. 

Louis L’Amour said this- “Start writing no matter what. The water does not flow until the faucet is turned on.”

Let the journey begin!
