Sensory Storytime - Springfield Public Library

Springfield Public Library will begin a monthly Sensory Storytime with Debby Laimon.  This is a fun and interactive storytime specially designed for young children with special needs and their families. Through a combination of movement, songs, books, games, and poems, children with special needs participate in the joy of literacy activities in a community setting.

Sensory Storytime follows a predictable schedule and incorporates a variety of sitting and standing activities.

In addition, sensory activities are integrated throughout the storytime, such as bubbles and musical instruments.

Finally, interaction with materials is encouraged through the use of felt stories, lift-the-flap books, and interactive touch books.
