The World Cup Practical Ideas for Multisensory Learning

The World Cup Sensory Pack offers a calm, structured way for sensory explorers to explore the excitement of the tournament through touch, sound, smell, taste, movement, and shared celebration. Each activity is designed with a clear single message, predictable rhythm, and meaningful opportunities for communication, turn‑taking, teamwork, and sensory exploration.
 
Learners meet the teams through textured flags, explore cultural smells and tastes, take part in a sensory football match, and enjoy a gentle trophy ceremony to close the session. The pack includes optional food‑based extensions and a post‑match celebration to deepen engagement and reinforce positive shared experiences.
 
With adaptable props and a consistent structure, this resource can be repeated throughout the tournament by swapping teams to explore different cultures, building familiarity while offering fresh sensory opportunities each time.

Hi, thank you for clicking onto my bio. My name is Victoria Navin, I am the Founder of Rhyming Multisensory Stories.

I am a passionate advocate for providing sensory-rich learning experiences for Neurodiverse, PMLD, Sensory and SEND Learners through my fully resourced, facilitated sensory stories and sensory-rich thematic classroom activities.

With over two decades of experience, including teaching children from travelling communities in Spain and working at a special school in Cheshire, I have written over 55 fully resourced sensory stories with facilitation guides, learning objectives and sensory-rich thematic classroom activities and reference resources.

I delivered online workshops for Creative Education and educators and caregivers worldwide and am a frequent speaker at online conferences having presented at Richard Hirstwood and Carol Allen's Sensory Festivals, and the PMLD Conferences run by Joanna Grace of The Sensory Projects.

I am a guest author in 'Sensory Stories - Making Narratives Accessible Through the Senses' by Dr Joanna Grace and Teaching Reading to All Learners Including Those with Complex Needs' by Sarah Moseley, and frequently contribute to the PMLD Link journal. I have written a sensory story for The Sensory Projects and have also featured in SEN Magazine making me a leading figure in the field of sensory-based education
I write the sensory activities for Little Magic Train and have written curriculum packs for Marvin's Storytime Show.

I have collaborated with The Story Massage Programme, Songs, Signs and Sounds and Luula.

My first book published by Routledge in Oct 2025 'Sensory Spaces: An A-Z of Immersive and Creative Environments to Support Sensory Integration' is a practical guide to creating customisable environments that spark curiosity, creativity, and storytelling. Using everyday items, it shows how to design spaces for learning, sensory engagement, and relaxation.

Whether you are exploring sensory storytelling for the first time or deepening your inclusive practice, I hope my resources bring inspiration, clarity, and joy to your learning journeys.

Your questions, queries, comments, and feedback are always welcome.

Thank you for reading my bio. Let's connect!
Victoria
