I would love to have this for my son Alexander! He could learn so much more with visuals!

Posted by: Barbara Bucknam | July 24, 2012 at 07:25 PM

Just got my son and iPad and haven't bought a single App because I wasn't sure where to start. This looks like it might have a ton of possibilities. Very exciting!!

Posted by: Jan | July 24, 2012 at 06:51 PM

This looks great. My son has an ipad, severe dyspraxia, and still nonverbal. His other fav toy is a string too! :-)

I am a new ABA therapist and I would love to have this program to help the child I work with.

Posted by: Stacy Ezor | July 24, 2012 at 05:42 PM

This would be a huge help for my son, he has a iPad which he loves and usese it all the time but will not use a PC. He is does not talk which leads to frustration and hitting, ............... He is 8.

The iPad is amazing I still am so suprised how much he loves it and picked up on who to use it so quick, his other fav toy is a string.

We download any Autism learning app we can to see if he takes to it.

It would be a great gift

Posted by: Evan's Dad Chris Dionne | July 24, 2012 at 01:17 PM

This would work great with my son's ABA and academic programs!!

Posted by: Kimmie Fine | July 24, 2012 at 01:13 PM

It will save so much time (and money) in therapy just picking up 1 iPad than dozens of cards thrown on the floor (or across the room) during a therapy session!

Posted by: Debbie | July 24, 2012 at 12:40 PM

This would really help my son.

Posted by: Melissa | July 24, 2012 at 11:46 AM

My son Cole would LOVE THIS
