This is the perfect resource for SEN students aged 3-19, EYFS, Mainstream Primary, Speech & Language and EAL students.
 
A multisensory story is told using props to engage the senses and back up the spoken word.
 
The story props are low budget, everyday items found around the home, garden, outdoor areas and in the classroom.
 
What are the Benefits of Multisensory Storytelling?
1. Storytelling creates a bond between the storyteller and the story explorer enhancing and enriching experiences.
2. Rhyming Multisensory Stories connect the individual to literature, culture and topic in a fun and engaging way.
