Early Years Development Through Multi-Sensory Storytime
Welcome to Sense-a-Story, where we transform traditional storytelling sessions into immersive, multi-sensory experiences for children in Aberdeen.
Our engaging 45-minute sessions are designed for children aged 1-5, encouraging them to see, hear, smell, touch, and even taste the story!
Baby, Toddler and Preschool Multi-Sensory Classes
Sense-a-Story classes are more than just fun; they foster early years development through interactive story time, helping to build language and communication skills, self-awareness, and creativity. Our classes are designed to be inclusive and accessible for all children. Along with the spoken word, stories are signed.
Please note: We don't teach sign. Signing is used in an effort to be more inclusive, and to add an extra visual element to the story.
Join us for a journey where stories come to life, and little ones can socialise and learn together in a friendly, welcoming environment.
What to Expect at a Sense-a-Story Class
Every class begins with a welcome song to get everyone ready for what's in store.
Each week we explore a different story using all five external senses. The session features stimulating visuals, puppets and props, sound effects and musical instruments, natural scents, messy play and natural materials, healthy fruit and veg and lots more!
After the story, children can explore any or all parts of the story in free play, allowing them (and you!) to socialise.
Every class concludes with a goodbye song, allowing children to reflect on what they've experienced throughout the session.
Always Safety First
To put your mind at rest, we are very considerate of food and other allergies and hold Food Safety and Allergen certificates.
