The importance of listening to tales in special needs children’s homes for children with intellectual disability

In our study, we aim to present the initial steps of a story-telling programme carried out with children with intellectual disability in a specific Hungarian children’s home, in order to provide an insight into the operation/run/everyday life of special care/needs children’s homes, as well as to offer an alternative way to other institutes with a similar profile. To illustrate the present study, we applied a non-traditional way by using a genuine Inuit folktale ’Kagsagsug’, whose variation is published at the end of the text.
