It offers a wide range of engaging practice activities for learning reinforcement. This app is not only highly beneficial for individual learners but also for schools and language training centers.

Communication Buttons is THE app for simple augmentative communication. Choose sets of 9, 16, 25, and 36 to use for touch communication. Each button can be customized with a picture and will accommodate voice recording and sequences of 2 and 3. "Ready?" "Set..." "Go!" - and you're spontaneously communicating, demonstrating cause and effect as well as sequencing. State "yes," or "no," sing a song, or tell a story in 2 to 3 parts. Keep a lookout for additional versions with special options.
