This article presents the results of a study comparing the originality, the length, the number of neologisms and the syntactic complexity of fairy tales created with “Storyline” and “Associations Pyramid.” Both methods were developed to enhance children's language abilities and their creative thinking. One hundred twenty eight 5-year-old children were asked to tell stories using either the “Storyline” (SL) or the “Associations Pyramid” (AP) method during four routine class activities. Participants worked in 14 groups, five participants per group. The results showed that stories developed with SL and AP methods are comparably original, however more original than stories developed individually.
► I compared two methods as potentially useful in developing children's language creativity.
► I justified the usage and the comparison of those methods.
► It was found that children who used “SL” method created the most original stories.
► Compared stories have equal syntactic complexity and number of neologisms.
► It was found that the “SL” is the most effective method.
