Sensory Storytelling with ReadAbility

at Gaithersburg Library

Join us for a multisensory book and storytelling session for neurodivergent children & children with intellectual disabilities who learn best through sensory play.

Each fun original story has an educational component and an inclusive message. The storytelling sessions are interactive, with sensory props and storyboards used to engage the young audience with gentle sounds, scent, touch, and sight accompanying the story.  The multi-sensory books are enjoyed by children of all abilities, so siblings and friends are welcome too!  

This program is presented by ReadAbility, a nonprofit organization run by DMV area high school students.

For ages 3 and up. Parents/caregivers MUST accompany children during this program. 

Registration is required. Please only register once per family group.
