Nice but….

I always love these apps however I wish other later developing sounds were included like /sh/, /CH/ and /j/. It’s a lot of money not to include sounds beyond age 4-5 of acquisition. Please consider adding other affricates and fricatives.

Language and vocabulary is too complex

The stories are a great length and the illustrations are fantastic but the vocabulary in the stories is too complex for young children. Some older children would benefit from the vocabulary and language level in a short format but then the illustrations may be too young??

Great App

I love Little Bee speech apps and this one does does not disappoint. I love the comprehension questions and activities with each story. This app allows data to be saved and emailed to parents in an easy to read and understand format.

Fantastic for articulation therapy

I am a speech therapist and love this app for working on comprehension and articulation sounds at the sentence and conversation level. My kids love the fact that they get to practice their sounds while “playing” on the iPad.

Amazing app for Speech Therapy!

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!!!
