Testimonials & Reviews
"I purchased 'Chinese New Year' to use with my class of PMLD (complex needs) learners.
It was very easy to download and I found the pack very easy to use.
I did the sensory story both in class, and with my children learning from home.
The resources were easily found, they were all things I could find around the home. This made it easy for my home families to join in, giving the learners a meaningful experience.
The children all enjoyed the story and the pack came with lots of extra ideas and activities (including ideas to use for children with different learning needs!
I would definitely recommend and will use again!''

Victoria Navin has worked in special education for over ten years and has devised a series of stories to help children and young people connect to literature, culture and a range of topics.
She has focused on promoting communication skills, building confidence and experiencing a range of sensory experiences.
The books come as a download and are set out in a structured format that provides the storyteller with information about props needed, extension activities such as role play, design and technology and relaxation.
This is a super set of resources that could easily form the basis of a sensory story bag library for settings and family use
Absolutely excellent!
The story itself is very entertaining and educational - all of the grown-ups learned things too!
The props are highly stimulating and the additional activities are superb and highly appropriate.
This is an absolute steal for the amount of content.
Highly recommended!''

Every child deserves to enjoy the enchantment of reading and those of us who work with children with communication difficulties struggle daily to find ways to make this enchantment happen.
It was wonderful to have access to these books that bring experiences that allow children to read using their senses, realising details that otherwise would not be possible. even without knowing how to read conventionally, my students are enchanted by this type of learning.
