Who is Sensory SongTales for?

Sensory SongTales is a gentle, multi-sensory music experience designed especially for children with Down syndrome and their families.

Each session has a small capacity of 6 children plus their families to help create a calm, comfortable and supportive environment.

Small group sizes

Children are welcome to engage in whatever way feels comfortable for them – listening, moving, vocalising, exploring sensory materials or simply relaxing in the space.

Participation
