Stepwise Stories vs AutiBuddy

Help your child build real-world social and life skills through interactive stories and games. Developed with behavioral health experts for children with autism and developmental differences. Stepwise Stories transforms social learning into an engaging, game-based experience. Each story guides children through everyday situations, such as sharing with friends, getting dressed independently, and understanding why exercise matters, using interactive activities that help learning stick. What Makes Stepwise Stories Different Traditional social stories are read passively. Stepwise Stories brings them to life with embedded mini-games that check understanding, encourage practice, and keep children engaged. Kids don't just hear what to do; they actively participate in learning how to do it. Built on What Works Developed in collaboration with a BCBA-D and special education expert, Stepwise Stories aligns with evidence-based practices and the adaptive behavior domains used by clinicians and educators. Every story targets meaningful skills that matter in daily life. Currently Included Three complete interactive stories ready to explore: • Changing My Clothes - Build independence with dressing routines • Exercise is Good For Me - Understand the importance of physical activity • I Can Share - Practice turn-taking and sharing with others New stories are in development based on user feedback.
