Soundbeam
PORTABLE MUSIC SYSTEM ENABLES MUSIC TO
DETECT BODY MOVEMENT WITHOUT PHYSICAL
CONTACT.
Soundbeam is a fun packed unique no contact movement sound device which enables
clients regardless of physical or cognitive disability to experiment and communicate
with sound by moving within an invisible elastic keyboard in space. Even the blinking
of an eye can produce notes, dramatic chords or sound effects. Simple controls
allow the operating length of the beam between (300mm and 6m) to be tailored to
the mobility level of the individual user.

What is a Story Sack ?
A storysack is a large cloth bag containing a picture book with supporting materials
to stimulate reading activities. To bring the book to life there is a selection of soft
toys, scenery and props, games etc., relating to the story. There will also be a nonfiction book relating to the theme. In addition a prompt card of ideas, suggesting
ways in which you may develop listening, reading and writing skills using the contents
of the storysack and a guide for parents is also enclosed. In some of the newer
socks you will find a CD-Rom containing a bonus selection of extra fun activities to
print of and enjoy.
Safety Warning - The products in the sacks are for educational use and should be
used under supervision. The soft toys bear a CE mark but some props and other
items are not toys and therefore appropriate care should be exercised. Many sacks
contain small parts and are not suitable for children under 36 months.
What is a Bag Book ?
Bag Books are aimed at those who cannot benefit from mainstream books. They can
be enjoyed without being understood as they are told interactively through voice
and emotion rather than words and pictures. They are designed for people
with profound, multiple and severe learning disabilities or people with severe autistic
spectrum disorders. They are also hugely beneficial to those with visual and hearing
impairments.
Bag Books are very different to ordinary books. Each story contains a number of
‘pages’ – A3 boards – each containing a different multi-sensory experience. These
pages are bought together by a simple but interesting storyline of just a few short
sentences. Listeners are encouraged to explore the different sensory experiences.
The Books encourage the listener to become more involved in the story.
Each of the Books takes the listener on a journey to discover new textures, sounds,
smells and movements. They can be used on a one to one basis or in small groups
Safety Warning - There maybe some small parts in some of the stores. Bag Books
should be used under supervision at all times
