About the Lakota Storytelling Playsilk 
The Lakota Storytelling Playsilk features original illustrations by Lakota artist and teacher Caroline Stadnick, and comes with an activity card that highlights different Lakata stories and prompts young readers to exercise their own voice and imagination through the power of storytelling. The artwork for this Playsilk now hangs centrally at the Lakota Waldorf School, an independent, tuition-free school serving children in southwestern South Dakota. The school seeks to cultivate and strengthen Lakota cultural identity and build a solid foundation for Lakota language fluency in its community. Made with the intention of celebrating the beautiful storytelling traditions within Lakota culture, we hope this Playsilk supports parents and educators in teaching young children respect and reverence for indigenous peoples and traditions, through the universal power of storytelling.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do children use these Lakota storytelling play silks?

Children retell favourite stories again and again, using the illustrated silk for story time, independent play, and small world scenes. The artwork prompts young readers to use their own voice and imagination as they narrate along.

How big is this Playsilk and what is it made of?

The Lakota Storytelling Playsilk measures 21 by 29 inches and is made from heavyweight, one hundred percent pure mulberry silk. The generous size and soft weight make it easy to drape, fold, and revisit for daily play.

What is included with the Lakota Storytelling Playsilk?

Each silk comes with a storytelling card that carries a QR code, letting you download stories narrated by Caroline. The card also highlights different Lakota stories to share aloud with young children during quiet moments together.

Who created the artwork on this Playsilk?

The illustrations are original work by Lakota artist and teacher Caroline Stadnick. The same artwork now hangs centrally at the Lakota Waldorf School, a small independent school serving children in southwestern South Dakota.

Does buying this Playsilk support a good cause?

Yes. Ten percent of every Lakota Storytelling Playsilk sale goes to the Lakota Waldorf School, a tuition free school that works to strengthen Lakota cultural identity and build a foundation for Lakota language fluency in its community.

Is this Playsilk good for small world and independent play?

It works well for both. Children can spread it out as a backdrop for small world scenes, or hold it during quiet story time. The open design invites them to lead their own play and add their own characters.
