About the Free Printable Social Story

This social story is all about how to cope when things get too loud. It offers up practical strategies that kids can implement when they get overwhelmed by loud noises.

I highly suggest laminating the social story for durability. You can use binder rings to keep the social story together or store it in a binder. As an alternative to laminating, you could use sheet protectors in a binder. Or if you find yourself printing off lots of social stories, then this binding machine is a lifesaver!
