This app has a main page that shows 12 icons/pictures. The child touches one & it displays a photo of the item along with an audio clip of the item.
I'm a speech therapist who works with kids with developmental disabilities. Here's my take on this app:
PROS: 1) Large, simple photos paired with clear audio clips are very appealing. 2) Randomly rotating picture/sound display for each item helps with generalization. 3) if you shake the iPad while on the main page, the positions of the buttons change locations ...which is useful in determining scanning and picture recognition for kids with developmental disabilities.
CONS: 1) It does not label the item. Since the description says it is available in 5 different languages, maybe this function is not working on mine - or maybe the labels are only on the paid version. 2) I have student with Angelman Syndrome who loves this app. Unfortunately, the 12 icons are too many for him to be able to make a deliberate choice. The app would be great for kids with multiple disabilities who need to work on visual discrimination/picture recognition IF it users were given the option to limit the number of choices on the main page. 3) As a speech therapist, I dislike the frog page (although the sounds are actual recordings of frogs, the sounds are too unfamiliar for young kids to associate with frogs) and 4) I wish they hadn't put a turkey as one of the photos/sounds for the chicken icon. For kids with language delays this is confusing - for my students who can understand the difference, I usually make a joke of it, saying "Hey, that's not not a chicken! Get out of here you turkey!"
