Acquiring the ability to take turns may help develop patience, cooperation, social etiquette, and be a foundation for building strong relationships. The Turn Taking apps by Judy Lynn Software is designed to teach this concept by having two students alternate pressing their prompts to uncover a picture. When the picture is revealed, a video reward related to the picture is presented in a movie theater setting. A short buzzer sound effect is played for out-of-turn presses. The app allows you to customize a student's prompt by selecting from the default stock photos or use a photo from your photo gallery. The students take turns uncovering the pictures by either touching their prompt on the screen or pressing their switch. The app allows you to preview one activity.
