Who
A Who is the character, the story should be about. It can
be anything- a person, a magical creature, an object, an
animal. Look around the room for some inspiration. See a
toy, a thing, a pet?

What
Super Easy Storytelling Formula for storytelling with kids
A What is what the main character (the Who) wants. Every
plot starts with someone wanting something. What would
your Who want? It could be to do something, to be
something, or to overcome an obstacle. It can be ordinary,
or outrageous-- and when it comes to kids, a story based
on an outrageous goal is lots more fun. For example, a
hippo who wants to be a dancer or a snowman who wants
to overcome his fear of snowflakes makes for a funny
story.

Why Not
A Why Not? is why the main character (the Who) of the
story can't have what he wants (the What). This is the
start of your story plot-- character wants something but
can't get it. The Why Not can be another character (a
bad guy) an external obstacle (something is in his way)
or an internal obstacle (a fear or inability).

Another character is trying to stop your Who: An evil
ladybug, a dragon.
An external obstacle is in the way: A pit of slime, loses his
magic wand, car won't start, a runaway train, gets trapped
in a castle, minion revolution
An internal obstacle is in the way: Character doesn't know
how, is clumsy, is scared, has an attack of the hiccups

Who + What + Why Not = A Fun Story
Now that you have a Who (main character) and
What + Why Not (a plot) put them together to
start telling your story.
An Example
An alien + wants to be the first
from his planet to travel to Earth,
+ but his pet robot sabotages his
on-board navigation.
