Autism Learning Tools

Have gone through quite a bit of the content. This app has free and educational content to practice early skills such as tracing letters and numbers, colors (a fun balloon-popping activity), matching, maze work etc. I like how it locks you in to an exercise until it is completed- you can set up in settings for it to allow you to return to the “home” button after to pick a new activity. No need to go into guided access, unless your child has figured out how to access the cue of open apps on your iPad and swipe the app to close- then it will restart and allow you to see the main menu. But anyhow, consistent and particularly useful for kids on the autism spectrum, in my opinion. The only improvement I would like to see is if it would read words aloud when tapped. For example on the puzzles page you can match an item to its shadows and each item is labeled, but it does not say the item when touching the written label. Other than that, it’s great- can’t beat free and zero ads!

All of my kids love this game but I particularly love it for my 8yr old on the spectrum. It’s colorful and engaging and keeps her attention. It works on many skills that we practice in therapy. We use it as one of our homeschool tools. She loves the mazes and I love the phonics and numbers!
