What's Your Story? | CMSMatHome

What’s your story? Let’s create and share one in today’s #CMSMatHome!

Write or imagine a story. Create your characters, describe where they are and what they are doing. Gather a variety of props you want to use. Cast family members as story characters, or use them as an audience.
