Description
Book SynopsisMultisensory rooms are widely used across the country in schools, care settings, hospitals and homes. Even settings such as football stadiums and airports are installing multisensory environments. Nevertheless, a significant lack of effective research has led to a sense of unease around sensory rooms. This crucial book explores the use of multisensory rooms in order to ease that anxiety; taking the mystery out of multisensory rooms, and supporting the reader to reflect and make the most out of their space.
Key features include:
- Guidance on creating sensory spaces on any budget, to suit any level of need.
- An overview of the history of multisensory rooms, and a detailed exploration of the actual way in which the rooms are used today.
- A framework for evaluating existing practices and equipment, in order to maximise the potential of the room.
- A focus on the practitioner as the most important piece of equipment' i
Trade Review
"Whether you already have a multisensory room at your place of work or home, or you are considering using one, then this book is for you. It is not always a comfortable read, but it is definitely timely and, hopefully, the start of a new move towards bringing the magic back into multisensory rooms."
