More Fun Directions HD Lite vs Dyslexia Reader

If you liked our “Fun with Directions” app, you’ll also love More Fun with Directions Lite too! Developed by a speech pathologist, this app continues with the same playful, colorful and engaging format with a focus on 2 concepts: “behind” and “put in”. It is a sampler for our full version More Fun with Directions HD app! This is also a great app for speech therapy home practice. Put the apple behind the girl. Look for the guitar then put it in the puzzle! Find the boat then put it in the green garbage can. More Fun with Directions is designed to provide a fun and engaging way to practice listening, following directions, colors, comparatives (larger/smaller) spatial concepts, auditory memory and auditory processing. From the simplest of directions (“Put the house in the puzzle.”) to the more complex (“Put something with windows, doors and a roof in the puzzle”) your child can grow and learn with this game over time. Colorful, vivid art and animations against a white background combine to create a complete game experience without visual clutter. Sound effects and surprises keep the game engaging! This app is a great choice for a toddler/preschooler, or any young child who would like to practice listening to or reading directions! Features include settings for text on/off, (to practice reading vs. listening) selecting specific concepts, and the desired level of play: easy, intermediate, and advanced. An added bonus that is included in this app is the optional “Superstar Direction” which allows additional practice for remembering (“What did you have to do?”) but also expressive language. The child’s response is recorded and played back. Superstar Directions are surprise questions that pop up at random times, but can easily be turned off if desired.
