Little Stories Lite

As a school-based SLP, I have MANY things I absolutely LOVE about this app (and company). I already have Articulation Station Pro, and Articulation Test Center (two apps developed by this company) and have been extremely happy with both apps. I use them very often! When I saw Little Stories in the App Store, I had to try it out. I downloaded this free lite version and quickly realized I needed to just purchase the pro version. I have so many students on my caseload that can produce phonemes at the phrase and sentence level and needed something to target one step above before conversational speech. This app is perfect for that, and my students love it! It targets very common phonemes (/L/, /L/ blends, /s/, /s/ blends, /th/ (voiced and voiceless), /r/, and /r/ blends. The stories are packed with these sounds and before they read the story, they can practice the target words using the flash cards. Here’s the amazing bonus you get with this app...you can also target reading and LANGUAGE! :) You can check reading fluency and comprehension with this app. There are 4 different comprehension activities to choose from: Story Retell, Sequencing, WH questions, and story talk. I have nothing but good things to say about this app. Please make more apps, Little Bee Speech!!!

As an SLP, I love all Little Bee speech apps! I’ve been wanting a new language app and this is definitely my new favorite. This app can be used for SO many different clients. I love the coloring option for younger clients and the sequencing and wh- questions for older clients. Little Bee products are so carefully designed which means that these apps always have the tools I need easily available. I can’t recommend these products enough!

Over the years, my therapy has changed from using multiple apps to trickling down to maybe 1-2 in a given week. I have not been able to find that perfect app that I or my clients are excited to use until Little Stories. After using the Lite Edition I knew I needed to have more. With over 80 carefully designed stories, I figured this is less than a dollar a story! I am able to choose reading levels, target phonemes, work on sequencing, story grammar, resells, recordings for language samples, email my results to parents/teachers, and more... I couldn’t lose! After reading a story I have had clients retell and sequence it for me, this has become fresh and motivating. In the game section, I’ve been able to work on multiple prepositions as the clients describe where the Bee is in the picture (I also get more language out of them-Yeah!). I’ve been able to use this with students grades 1-7. Being able to adjust the story settings to make the students feel more comfortable (older/younger) is a huge advantage , as my older students want to feel older and not like a child. Little Bee Speech has worked tirelessly to put out another app that is useful for all settings, especially in schools or practices that work with school aged students. They are also, highly mindful of the need for parents to be kept in the loop and have created a means to share progress with them. This app is Quality! I am able to save myself additional prep time from locating materials by using this app. This app is outstanding-buy it! You won’t be disappointed.
