We could'nt be more pleased with our decision to get Row an iPad for Christmas!!!! There are countless applications for speech and language, cause and effect, audio and visual, music, communication, education etc... Row uses her iPad several times a day EVERY DAY...and she loves it! Some of her favorite apps areRattle, Hatch, Peek a Boo Barn, Peek A Boo Wild, I Hear Ewe, Baby Finger, Chimes, Fish School HD, I love Fireworks, Atomic Top, Nursery Jam, Drums, Baby Piano Lite, Instuments Free,Art of Glow, Glow Draw, DoodleBuddy, Story Kit, Cat in the Hat....the list goes on! Almost all of these are interactive and most were either free or under 2 bucks! And this is one tool that will grow with her and help to educate her into adaulthood!!!! I think every special needs child should have one!!!
I have to say, I am REALLY impressed with all of the work you put in to helping your daughter. As the mother of an ASD child, I know how much energy that requires.
ReplyDeleteI make iPad apps for kids with special needs and I would love to send you a free code for ours, so your daughter has another app to play with.

If this looks like something she'd be into, shoot me an email at info@extraspecialkids.com and I'll send you a code.

ReplyDeleteI love your work play area! Amazing! My daughter four with down syndrome got an iPad for Christmas also. I agree...all special needs kids should have one. Have you checked out Tiny Ocean and Tiny Garden, your daughter might like them. Also download appshopper, it tells you when apps are free!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to chat with you about some of the equipment Rowan uses (especially the Squiggles Early Activity Mat). Is there a way I can contact you? Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the apps! We will definately check those out asap! Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you...we've been running Row back and forth to Shriners in Lexington...next we're off to Morgantown to see an ortho @ WVU! But I'm sure you all know all about that kind of thing! You can reach me anytime @ angelNmonte@yahoo.com or find me on facebook @ facebook.com/AngelNMonteHicks there's an entire album of pics devoted to Row on our facebook!Love to hear from you and thanks again!!
