Dig, Dump, Play! A construction sensory adapted book.

Dig, Dump, Play! A construction sensory book designed by an educator and early intervention SLP to support body awareness, sensory exploration, and early communication through play. 

This interactive adapted book invites children to explore sounds, movements, and sensory experiences alongside a familiar construction theme. There is no expectation to complete, create, or perform -- children are encouraged to engage at their own pace and follow their curiosity. 

Each page pairs real-life images with simple, sensory-rich language to support body awareness and self-regulation while reading and playing.
