Encouraging my kids to do writing can be a bit challenging. But, like most things, I always try to use their special interests to try and pique their interest.
I've already created some writing prompts for kids that are Mario themed and Sonic themed. So it made sense to make my boys some Pokemon themed ones too since it has been an interest of theirs for years now.
So if you have a little Pokemon fan at your house too, then I hope they'll have with these prompts!
