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.
