Hi Mirla. Heard about your blog from a friend of mine who developed Brain-Go. I wanted to let you know about my app MouthWorks. It is an animated app designed to help children with their speech production. The highlight of the app is that each mouth posture, sound, and word (CV or CVC) is modeled [...]
There are a lot of apps that I've put into the general category of language. These are apps that can be used to work on areas such as vocabulary, prepositions, descriptives, actions, sequencing and answering questions. Since I have so many, I'll briefly describe the apps and for what language target I would use them. [...]
Once one starts collecting apps, as I have, categorizing them becomes a necessity. Most of my professional apps fit into the language and muli-use categories. It won't be too long before I start pulling apps out of those categories and giving them more specific names, especially for the language, vocabulary and multiple uses categories. So [...]
I just saw your post about this app and downloaded it- looks great! Thanks for the recommendation!
I'm glad you asked about putting apps into categories. I was thinking about doing a post on just that topic. An executive decisions has been made to make that the topic of my next post.I know that Smarty Ears has an app called /r/ intensive SLP. The description of it states that it is for [...]

What I will try to do in my upcoming posts, is highlight these apps and talk about how they can be used in language therapy.There are [...]
cmf, best of luck with your app.
My app Is SpeechStickers and is a practice app for non-verbal & minimally verbal kids (mostly with childhood apraxia of speech). Our first version has consonants /m,p,b/ and 5 basic vowels but we are about to put out an update with /t,d,k,g,s,sh,n/. I'm always thinking of great app ideas but since we are all "evening [...]
I posted blog on December 26, 2011 about apps we can use for associations. The other day I downloaded a new app that fits into that category---Things That Go Together. The pictures are clear and nicely laid out. One moves the picture on the left to fit into the corresponding empty box next to its [...]
