Is it a battle to get your child to do something quickly? This visual countdown App was designed for my 2 year old son to help him get his reward chart star for getting dressed quickly. Getting him dressed used to take forever with many stalling strategies being deployed. Now he runs upstairs asking for the "Countdown". Watch as the timer runs from green to amber to red, helping the child understand that time is running out. A fun picture is slowly revealed as the time runs down and when the time is up the child is rewarded with an exciting sound and the picture spins. Background image changes to match the time of day, so that your child is given subtle hints as to what time of day the task they are being asked relates to. Choose your own image to reveal from your iPhones photo library to really surprise your child. Endless possible uses: * Getting dressed * Getting out the door (shoes and coats on) * Tidying * Brushing teeth * Sharing toys Turns daily struggles into fun time!

Welcome to Quiet Voices - An Aid for Selective Mutism. Understanding and managing selective mutism (SM) is a challenging journey, both for those who experience it and for their supporters. Quiet Voices is your companion on this journey, and we are here to help you understand, support, and master it. We can work our way out of silence; it takes time and consistent effort over time, but it gets better! This app is designed to have someone guide young individuals through it and can customize tasks individually since we are at different stages on the journey out of silence. Large goals are broken down into smaller milestones, making progress evident along the way. Remember to remove speech pressure and work on confidence; we don't start with tasks that require speech unless you're ready for it. Therefore, please see our task suggestions on the app's accompanying website. We have a feature where you can play with your voice and practice typical pressure words such as "thank you" and "hello." If you're feeling very stressed along the way, we have a butterfly to help you find peace with breathing exercises. We wish you the best of luck on your journey with Quiet Voices. Remember that you are not alone, and we are here to assist you. Take your time to explore the app and make use of our resources and support. The Quiet Voices project is a collaboration with the Council for Mental Health and is supported by the Dam Foundation in Norway. Good luck!
