Is Multi Sensory Story Telling Important for people with developmental and intelectlual challenges

when used correctly the multi sensory kits from http://www.TouchingStories.org can open a world of experience and connections to people whose ability to communicate is hampered by physical or itellectual challenges. The TS Kits include props that stimulate all the senses as the story is told. It builds a connection and delights both the storyteller and the recipient. We are going to be using indigogo to raise the funds to develop a new kit and produce a training video so that these kits can be used to their best by anyone!!
