This is a complete reference guide for Parents/Carers, Early Years and Special Education Professionals.
Our senses are constantly bombarded with stimuli in our busy lives.
To a young child or an individual with special educational needs and disabilities this sensory overload can sometimes cause them to ‘switch-off’.
Focusing on individual sounds provides the opportunity to concentrate on the sense of hearing alone helping the sensory explorer to make sense of their environment.
Other benefits of focusing on the sense of hearing are teaching sound discrimination, promoting the development of language, communication skills and increasing attention span.
This comprehensive guide explores fun and engaging sensory ways of stimulating the sense of hearing.
The A-Z of sounds is divided into the following categories: Animals, Transport, Musical Instruments & Home.
It also includes fun, motivating sensory themed extension activities.
This resource is suitable for working with curious preschoolers to teenagers with complex needs.

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