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.

  3. The stories form a base on which to scaffold learning enabling the student to work on personal goals and individual targets.

  4. The activities in the stories are designed to promote communication skills: (eye contact, listening, shared attention and language development), self-confidence and well-being (trying out new ideas and skills, practicing self-care, independence and enjoying achievement), self-awareness: (asking for ‘help’, ‘again’ and ‘more’), present opportunities to explore cause and effect and build anticipation skills, promote physical development: (fine and gross motor skills), build knowledge about the environment and the world around us, to engage in scientific experimentation and mathematical concepts and to develop social and emotional skills: (turn-taking, sharing and teamwork).

  5. The sensory stimuli (story props) are a tool for the story explorer to explore and express their likes, dislikes, and sensory preferences and to have the opportunity to make choices.
    This information can be used to identify motivators or items to calm and individual when anxious, tired, or stressed, identify triggers, (some you may wish to avoid, others to work on building tolerance through desensitisation in a safe and therapeutic environment) and used in the writing of care plans to enhance areas daily life.
