すべてのお話を一覧で：教えと対象年齢

1. Arachne the WeaverAges 6–12

   Talent is a gift, but pride and boasting can make even the most gifted person lose everything. For older children it also raises a good question: was Athena fair, when Arachne's work was perfect?

2. Orpheus and EurydiceAges 7–12

   Love can be brave enough to walk into the dark, but it also needs trust and patience. Orpheus kept his promise almost all the way and broke it at the last moment, which is why the story still makes people think about doubt, grief and letting go.

3. Persephone and the SeasonsAges 6–12

   A mother's love is strong enough to change the whole world, and even the darkest season ends. The myth was the ancient Greeks' way of explaining why plants die back in winter and return in spring.

4. Hercules and the Nemean LionAges 6–12

   Strength alone isn't always enough: when his arrows and club failed, Hercules stopped, thought and found another way. The story also rewards kindness, as poor old Molorchus shares what little he has with a stranger.

5. Icarus and DaedalusAges 6–12

   Listen to the people who keep you safe, and know your limits, even when you're having the time of your life. The myth also celebrates Daedalus's ingenuity: a clever mind can find a way out where others see only walls.

6. King Midas and the Golden TouchAges 6–12

   Be careful what you wish for. More is not always better, and the things that really matter, the people we love, food on the table, a hug, can't be bought. Midas learns it the hard way and is wise enough to change.

7. Echo and NarcissusAges 6–12

   Pride and unkindness come back to you, and someone who loves only himself ends up alone. The story also shows how much it hurts to be ignored, and why listening to others matters.

8. Pandora's BoxAges 6–12

   Curiosity is natural, but some rules are there for good reasons, and some things can't be undone once they're let out. And even when everything goes wrong, hope stays with us.

9. Perseus and MedusaAges 6–12

   Keep your promises, even hard ones, and don't be too proud to accept help. Perseus wins not by strength but by thinking, listening to good advice and never looking where he shouldn't.

10. Prometheus Brings FireAges 6–12

    Real kindness can mean standing up for others even when it costs you. Prometheus thought ahead, knew he would be punished and gave people fire anyway, which is why he became a symbol of courage, generosity and human cleverness.

11. The Trojan HorseAges 7–12

    Think twice before trusting a gift that seems too good to be true, especially from someone with a reason to trick you. It is also a story about listening: Laocoön and Cassandra told the truth, and no one wanted to hear it.

12. Theseus and the MinotaurAges 7–12

    Courage means standing up for others, not just yourself. And even the bravest hero needs help: without Ariadne's clever idea, Theseus would never have found his way out.
