Let's Go Places is an intuitive social modeling app for all children learning what to expect for common trips around the neighborhood. Trips include: - Grocery store - Park - Restaurant - Haircut - Dentist - Doctor - Bus ride - Speech Therapist Friendly pictures invite exploration by little ones. Each trip is a series of photos with short captions; displayed as text and spoken by the children. Our son is autistic. His first successful doctor visit, including a shot, was holding a social modeling app. This is my way of giving back to the community.
