Interpretive reading and storytelling are daily activities in kindergartens that contribute to the speech development of preschool children. It is important to understand the basic meaning of the term "interpretively" which refers to reading or speaking based on the nuances of spoken language. These activities can be categorized into auditory and visual forms, and they should be consistently integrated into interactions with children. However, research has shown that educators do not always utilize these techniques to their full potential, even though each of them plays an important role in speech development. To begin with, it is essential to consider the psychological aspect of the connection between motor skills and speech, particularly the role of mirror neurons, which are interdependent. Educators should be familiar with the fundamental characteristics of preschool child development to detect any possible deviations. They play a responsible role by attentively listening to every child in the group, serving as a model for regular speech and creating an environment that encourages active listening during storytelling sessions. Educators introduce children to a variety of stories, including fairy tales, picture books, and fables with animal characters, each with its distinct features. Picture books are known for their illustrations, fairy tales often include elements of magic, and stories can be in the form of fables with animal protagonists. Key concepts related to reading picture books include monologue and dialogic reading. In the modern paradigm, children are viewed as equal participants, making dialogical reading of picture books a collaborative process. These activities take place in an environment equipped with various resources that enhance the storytelling experience. Educators must carefully consider how to present stories to children and convey their own engagement with the narrative. While telling, storytelling, and retelling are sometimes used interchangeably, they have distinct meanings. Competent narrators should possess certain skills, including maintaining eye contact, fostering warm relationships with children, encouraging children to express themselves verbally, and instilling values. Ultimately, the foundation for a well-told story lies in thorough preparation. It is crucial to work consistently each day to promote the speech development of children.
