learned optimism through multisensory stimulation, and explains how
a programme of support can be designed and modulated to match the
person's needs, interests and abilities. Full of practical, easy to

book will help: foster a feeling of ease with the environment the
child or adult experience pleasure and happiness kick-start their
desire to explore encourage improved learning, social well-being
and quality of life. The author offers an abundance of exciting
multisensory stimulation ideas that can be applied to
communication, play, leisure and recreation, therapy and education.
Practical resources also show how to monitor and review
applications to ensure they are being used in the most effective
and enjoyable ways possible. Informed by an astute, up-to-date,
comprehensive overview of research and theory, The Multisensory
Handbook will appeal to primary professionals from a wide range of
