Mental Imagery Therapy for Autism (MITA) is a unique, early-intervention application for children with language delay and autism.

MITA develops your child’s imagination and language functions. The visual exercises follow a systematic approach for developing your child's ability to notice multiple features of an object. MITA starts with simple exercises that teach your child to attend to only one feature, such as size or color. Over time, the exercises get more difficult and require your child to attend to two features simultaneously, such as both color and size. MITA then moves on to puzzles that require attending to three features, such as color, size and shape, and then eventually to puzzles that involve attending to an ever-increasing number of characteristics. 
The verbal exercises use higher forms of language, such as adjectives, prepositions, and syntax.

MITA is developed by Dr. A. Vyshedskiy, a neuroscientist from Boston University; R. Dunn, a Harvard-educated early-child-development specialist; MIT-educated, J. Elgart and a group of award-winning artists and developers working alongside experienced therapists.

Most MITA features are completely free and the free MITA version provides access to years of language therapy. Some additional features are available as a MITA Premium subscription for $69.99/year. Your subscription pays for the development of new language exercises that are added each month.

### 5/5 — So fun

*2024-07-17*

Even me as a 10 year old child would have fun with MITA. The only issue I have with this app is that it takes forever to load the next part of the level. Even though I already know entire sentences in Greek, it doesn’t ruin the point of this app. There's always more words to learns.

### 4/5 — Приложение перестало работать

*2024-05-11*

Приложение не работает, после 1 задания в каждой игре 2е задание уже не работает 
Объекты не двигаются. Пробовали перезагружать, менять задания, ничего не помогает. До этого все работало исправно около года

### 4/5 — 很不错的App

用这个两个月了，宝宝有进步。不知道这个和北京alsolife的A I平板比较如何，不知道选哪个更好。这个app就是对中文支持不好，以及没有个性化的定制题目。
