STORYPIC: picture cards that turn children aged 8–12 into storytellers – from cards to stories to books. We are looking for licensing partners.

YSTORY (Busan, Korea, founded 2012) creates story-play tools and trains teachers to use stories in the classroom.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Pick cards – children draw picture cards. The cards carry no text, so they work in any language.

2. Tell a story – they link the cards with a simple story structure, the Five-Piece Story.

3. Make a book – they write the story down and turn it into a small book of their own.

PROVEN IN KOREA

• Bought by 3,843 Korean schools (32.4% of primary, middle and high schools)

• 85,000 card sets sold; 4.8 million people have played

• Featured in an approved middle-school textbook ("Creating Stories")

• KOCCA Game of the Month (Good Game category)

• Classroom research on story writing, reading and attention
