24 Oops Stories - for Download

24 stories for reading aloud, reflection, and imitation

This special collection of stories invites children to discover the big and small questions of everyday life together with Oups: What does friendship feel like? What does responsibility mean? Why is trust important? And how can we treat each other with care?

The stories – developed by Dipl. Päd. Margret Stöckler, the founder of the educational concept “Heartfelt Education with Oups” – are specifically tailored to the experiences of children. They support parents and educators in teaching values in an experiential rather than didactic way. Through loving impulses, open questions, and small hands-on ideas, children are invited to reflect, philosophize, and experiment. This creates valuable conversations, new perspectives, and moments of genuine connection – at home, at school, or in kindergarten.

Whether as a daily ritual, a conversation starter, or as a companion throughout the year:
The 24 stories are perfect for the entire year – and thanks to their number, they also fit wonderfully into the Advent season, without being religiously bound.
There are two versions, one with a neutral design and one for the Christmas season - the stories are identical.

What this treasure trove of stories enables:

• strengthens self-confidence, empathy & social competence
• promotes mindful communication & shared reflection
• inspires creativity, courage, and independent action
• creates closeness, trust, and valuable learning moments

A wonderful companion for families, teachers, educators, and everyone who wants to convey values to children with heart. Enjoy reading aloud!
