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 Lakota 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.

The artist's story suggestions include:

  • The Great Race
  • Brave Woman Counts Coup
  • The Flute
  • Iktomi, Coyote, and the Rock
  • How People Learned to Fish
