Every child has something to say. Talking Cards helps them say it. Free to start, with 194 everyday words. A grown-up can open everything for a free week — three times over — and for 15 minutes every day, always. Tap a picture and the word is spoken aloud, clearly and warmly, and the card is held up big so your child can look, listen and say it too. Made for late talkers, children with speech delays and autistic children — and for every child learning their first words. It supports a child's own talking; it never replaces it. Made by a dad whose own child struggled to speak.
