Picture Writing Prompts--Chewing Gum for the Writer
This is a photo I took just last weekend! I chased the hot air balloon (my husband was driving) and made him stop the car to take this photo. I could only think of how this would be a cool writing prompt for my kids. What can we infer? What went wrong? Was anyone hurt? Did it land in a huge tree, or is this a bush? Photos also can be deceiving....Writing can go in any direction with these prompts. Have you taken some fun pictures? Why not use them?
