What is Sensory Squad? 
Sensory Squad is a fun and educational Makaton signed and captioned YouTube series for children which enhances communication and offers learning experiences through songs, stories and repetition.  The series aims to help families and children prepare for real world experiences such as farm, circus or museum visits.  

Explore the world around us with the help of our friendly squad, including Rei. Inquisitive and helpful, Rei ‘zooms’ through life and wants to help everyone enjoy every moment. 

Each episode includes an original song and a fun craft activity with instructions on how to join in with the use of the Sensory rucksack - a sack filled with fun, sensory items, which families and teachers can put together. 

Children of all abilities will learn about different settings and feature activities that they can replicate using sensory moments e.g. getting grubby in the garden (grass) or exploring a local beach (bucket and sand)?
