LizzyB Learning Tools is an educational and developmental game/tool for all children. It is designed specifically for children on the autism spectrum but is also useful for neurotypical toddlers. Children can work on matching, short-term memory, number and letter recognition, fine motor skills and more and have fun while doing it! This app especially targets skill development for children with autism and developmental delays. Using easy to understand instructions and eye-catching animation children move through tasks commonly practiced in therapy sessions. Reports are provided for the parent to monitor progress and maintain records. Want to show developmental activities as part of your home school records? No problem! LizzyB Learning Tools records the amount of time spent in each activity and you can export it for your records. This is a great tool for young children and children with special needs to be able to use independently (or with minimal assistance). Levels 1. Drag & Drop: Start by moving characters into the shape they fit into. As you develop your skills they’ll progress to fruits and vegetables, and eventually letters and numbers with fun characters mixed in! Words are printed alongside the matching shapes to aid in word recognition. 2. Maze: Move our fun characters through mazes that get bigger and more complex as you progress. Develop your hand eye and fine motor coordination as you play. 3. Memory Cards: Match numbers, shapes, fun characters, and more! The levels become more challenging as you go! Both memory and visual skills can be strengthened in these levels. 4. Balloons: Follow the instructions and choose only the balloon indicated. We get to practice colors, numbers, and letters while balloons and birds fly in an engaging and exciting popping adventure! This is a great way to practice attention and instruction following in a colorful manor that’s full of movement! Watch out! The birds may pop the balloons if you don’t get to them first! 5-1. Tracing Numbers: Learn your numbers! Trace (with stroke guidance) your numbers, count the animals, and watch them leap into our fun train! This is the foundation of the number and math skills we will strengthen with more fun to come! 5-2 Tracing Letters: Now it’s time to work on your letters! Just like before, you get to trace! Trace uppercase and lowercase letters and touch the pictures that start with the level and watch them fly over to the train cars. Want to increase the difficulty? Use a stylus and work on your pencil grip! 6 Where’s The Questions & Answers: 10 levels with 4 different kinds of question sets. First learn Colors and shapes. Then Numbers 1-10 (or advanced 11-20 option). The remaining two sets are mixed and include learning letters and things (animals, household items and food). 7-1 Simon Colors & Numbers: Six sets of the the classic Simon game but teaching colors and numbers. It also contains advance levels with two Simon games on the screen at once. 7-2 The final four sets include 20 Rotating Number Puzzles, an Alphabet Puzzle and finally a geography puzzle. 8. Spoken Question & Answers ("Where's the...") levels covering Colors & Shapes, numbers, letters (lower & upper), Animals, Household things, Fruit & Veggies. A total of 8 lessons x10 levels each. About Us While home with the family during these crazy times we searched for something positive and constructive to do with the children. The thought was, “why not turn this into a family project opportunity?” The LizzieB Learning Software family project was born. This app was designed for her and children like her to provide an educational platform that develops skills, keeps their attention, and is fun too! During development we also discovered how much her neurotypical siblings and cousins enjoyed the app and benefited from developmentally positive and engaging games. So feel free to try it out on siblings and toddlers.

Improve your child's articulation and pronunciation! Brought to you by a Speech Language Pathologist and the creator of the SpeakEasy: Home Speech Therapy app which has accelerated early language development for over 100,000 families. With Articulation Teacher, you choose specific sounds to work on with your child. You can work on Early Sounds like D or T, Middle Sounds like G or S, or Late Sounds like L or R. Articulation Teacher includes at home articulation activities to do with your child outside of the app as well as games to play with your child in the app. All suggestions are evidence-based and research-backed. Let's dive into what each sound set includes: --- In-App Games Our articulation games are best played side by side with your child, but if your child is up for it they can play the games on their own as well. For each sound, we have the following games: Splat: say the selected word, and have your child splat it from the choices on the screen! Name It: our simplest game, this is meant for rapidly trying to say different words using digital flash cards. Swipe to the next word and help your child say it out loud. Sound Check: look at and listen to each word, and have your child decide whether the word includes the sound you're working on or not. Space Match: play this out-of-this-world memory game, saying each word as you flip over each card, to work on both articulation and cognitive skills. Paper Games: print a list of articulation practice words and play these games around your house, bringing articulation practice directly into the world around you. --- Home Activities Each sound has 5 activities to try with your child at home. You can read these activities ahead of time, then do them with your child when you can. We recommend trying to do at least one Home Activity each day, and we encourage repetition as much as possible! Home Activities that focus on pronunciation and articulation are the most effective way to spend time with your child to work on speech development. We use videos, books, songs, and the world around you to help integrate articulation practice into every day. --- What Sounds and Letters Are Included? In Articulation Teacher, you can work on the following sounds: Early Sounds: B, P, M, D, T, N, and Vowels Intermediate Sounds: K, G, W, F, S, SH, and Multisyllabic Words Advanced Sounds: L, Final -L, R, R Blends, S Blends, and TH --- More Features Each sound also has an intro video that teaches you how the sound is made, as well as a digital and printable cue card which you can use to help remind your child to pronounce a sound. This cue card fits within the cueing hierarchy explained in the intro video. Cues are an essential part of articulation practice that we integrate directly into our games and activities. Plus, check out developmental milestones to know if your child is on track, and read free learning articles related to articulation development. Articulation Teacher is also meant to be used by SLPs during their sessions as an aid to articulation practice.
