World Book Day Resources for SEND Learners.
World Book Day is all about celebrating stories and making reading enjoyable for everyone. For learners with special educational needs (SEND), having the right tools can make all the difference. That’s where Inclusive Stories from HelpKidzLearn come in.
Why sensory stories matter.
Stories aren’t just words on a page - they’re experiences! Sensory stories bring books to life, helping children explore new ideas through touch, sound, movement, and visuals. Our Inclusive Stories use simple, structured language alongside sensory elements, making them more engaging for learners with additional needs.
Sensory stories help:
• Explore different cultures, themes, and experiences in an engaging way. • Encourage imagination and creativity through sensory play. • Boost communication skills with interactive storytelling. • Support understanding of cause and effect through interactive elements. • Build literacy skills at each learner’s own pace.
Inclusive Stories: bringing stories to life.
Inclusive Stories are designed to be fun, multi-layered, and versatile, meeting a wide range of learning goals. These literacy-rich, sensory stories engage all learners, regardless of ability, learning barriers, or age. Each story comes with: • In-depth delivery guidance • Assessment and recording sheets • Sensory props lists • Printables • Symbol sheets for AAC users • Cross-curricular activity ideas • A recipe book and more!

Accessible for every learner.
At HelpKidzLearn, we believe every child should have access to stories in a way that suits them. That’s why all our software works with multiple access methods, including touchscreens, switches, and eye gaze technology. No matter how a child interacts with the world, they can experience the magic of reading.
