Pedagogic material and guidance for Sagoväsen's audio stories

The pedagogical material is designed to provide preschool educators with clear, flexible, and easy-to-use support for working with Sagoväsen, aligned with the Swedish preschool curriculum (Lpfö 18, rev. 2025).

The material is adapted to real preschool routines and includes planning support, reflection prompts, discussion cards, coloring pages, and simple activities that allow children to process the stories through conversation, movement, and creative expression. The content supports children’s language development, imagination, social interaction, participation, and their ability to express thoughts, feelings, and experiences in different ways.

The guidance supports educators in integrating the stories into various parts of the day—such as rest time, group gatherings, transitions, and shifts in energy—and in adapting the work to the needs, interests, and daily conditions of the group. The material is designed to support continuity, recognition, and progression over time.

The focus is on:
– a sense of safety, structure, and predictability
– children’s participation, imagination, and expression
– processing through dialogue, movement, and creative activities
– professional support for the educator’s leadership and pedagogical choices

The material is intended as a complement to Sagoväsen’s audio stories and gives educators the flexibility to choose how much or how little support is needed in the moment, based on the context and goals of their practice.
