Sensory storytelling is a tactile approach to exploring stories. Through the use of sensory stimuli, people are able to experience a story through their five senses.

This can be a fun, engaging and interactive experience for all. Sensory storytelling provides an approach to telling stories in a unique way but also enhances cognitive development, communication, memory and wellbeing.

The Stories for Your Senses range are sensory stories which come in a sturdy board book format, perfect for people with PMLD (profound and multiple learning disabilities), they utilise all FIVE senses by calling for real-life items that can be found in and around the home, or cheaply at local shops. Each book within this range also comes with a free audiobook and soundscape, fully engaging the ears of the readers.
