How can I write engaging dialogue for children?

To write engaging dialogue for children, use simple language, relatable characters, and a playful tone. What age group are you targeting?

I'm focusing on 5 to 7-year-olds.

Great! For that age group, consider using short sentences and lots of action. Kids love dialogue that reflects their own experiences.

Any tips on making the dialogue sound natural?

Absolutely! Listen to how children speak, use their expressions, and include some humor. It makes the dialogue feel authentic.

Can you give me an example?

Sure! Instead of saying, 'The cat jumped on the table,' you could write, 'Look out! Whiskers is on the table again!'}
