Ababa. The case of selected Government preschools centers in Sub-cites of Addis Ababa, It is a
descriptive survey research, which aimed at assessing the use of multisensory teaching methods
in six purposively selected ECCE’s in yeka, Arada and Gullele Sub cities. Data were collected
using questionnaire and observation. The questioner administered to 60 teachers but only 45 0f
them completed. Data were tallied and analyzed using percentages. Findings showed that, the
uses of multisensory in preschools are encouraging. Although Visual stimulation and test and
smell activities were list employed. This was found to be due to low budget allocated for ECCE.
