### 4/5 — Not that good

*2020-10-09*

I don’t like it

### 5/5 — Super Helpful

*2020-08-23*

I'm a family counselor. I use this app when parents struggle to manage their children’s behaviors. Even a child is not autistic this app is super helpful too. Please don't stop providing this app and hope you develop more like this.

### 2/5 — Frustrating

*2019-03-07*

I don’t see any way to customize the stories.

### 1/5 — Not worth the $$

*2016-02-16*

There are a lot of free apps or apps with in purchase that do way more. It is not worth $9.99 more like .99. Don't buy.

### 4/5 — Speech/Language Pathologist

*2015-09-28*

The characters are engaging and preschoolers enjoy them. Nice to have the option to create our own personalized stories.

### 4/5 — Social Norms

*2015-06-30*

This app is a fantastic support for ASD children. My almost 4 year old son thoroughly enjoys engaging with the app and has memorised many of the stories, which really helps us cope with a range of daily activities as he can easily recall what is expected.
I would love to see this app have a parental lock added, which could allow parents to hide stories that aren't appropriate to their child. While you do need to select the stories to play them, a child can easily select stories and play them while having independent play time on their iPad. Some of the behaviour stories are quite fascinating to my son, who doesn't display these behaviours but now talks about them (eg biting people, hitting your head on the wall). Adding some sort of "hidden stories" feature would make this a 5 star app! Overall, it is very helpful and worthwhile purchase. Thank you for supporting ASD children to grow & thrive.

### 3/5 — For young children

*2015-02-09*

This app presents typical everyday situations and tasks by outlining the sequential steps needed
to complete them successfully. No expressive response is required or expected.  There are no questions to be answered. I was intending to use this app with a 7-year old child with Asperger’s but found it too passive and immature for him. For a younger child I would have preferred to see questions posed.
