"an absolute life saver"
Sue Carlyon, MSI Education
Adviser, Sense
"When I first did Tacpac®,
I sat fighting back the tears. Finally
I had found something that was specifically designed to meet the needs
of my child."

and complex sensory impairment
and global developmental delay |
Tacpac®
is a revolutionary activity pack that combines touch and music to
promote communication and social interaction, sensory, neurological and
emotional development.
The first Tacpac® has already been widely used for many years
in classrooms, health settings and homes, and Tacpac® Two, released in 2007 won an
inclusive resources award at the Special Education Needs Awards.
Tacpac® has
received praise from the RNIB, Sense, nasen, the Times Educational
Supplement, MSI networks, practitioners in health and education
settings, parents, children, adolescents, adults, elderly dementia
patients, and users across the world.
Take a look around our website to find out more about

could help you and those you want to help. Read what others have to say
about it, the background theory, and some of the research findings.
