Stories from Greek mythology for children are some of the oldest and most well–known in the world. Many of these stories were first told by the ancient Greeks themselves, and then passed down through the generations. Today, stories from Greece continue to be popular with both children and adults alike.

One of the most famous stories of Greece is that of “The Odyssey”. This story tells of the hero, Odysseus, and his long journey home after enduring many challenges. Along the way, he faces many obstacles, including the dangerous Cyclops and the scheming goddess, Circe. This story is a great example of the power of perseverance and determination.

Another popular Greek story is that of “The Iliad”. This story tells of the great Trojan War, and the hero, Achilles. Achilles is a brave warrior who fights for the Greeks against the Trojans. However, he is also prideful and rash, which leads to his downfall. This story teaches the importance of humility and thinking before acting.

These are just two of the many folktales from Greece that are enjoyed by children (and adults) today. These stories provide valuable lessons that can be applied to our own lives. They also give us a glimpse into the rich culture and history of Greece.
