I always loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-steal-plots-when-youre-making-up-bedtime-stories-for-the-kids#post-1442283 Sat, 22 Feb 2014 05:36:21 +0000 mrbee 1442283@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read this idea on Instagram, and now I tell the kids stories from movies instead of making up my own nonsense. When the kids are a little older, I'll probably make up some recurring characters for bedtime stories so that they (hopefully) have some happy memories of childhood.</p> <p>For now though, this works just fine. But if the kids ever see the movies Big or Splash, I'm pretty sure the jig is up!</p> <p>Do you ever steal plots when you're making up bedtime stories for the kids? </p>
