Custard Splodger vs Sensory DrumKit

Let’s get messy with custard. A simple touch and switch accessible activity to encourage creative play. Custard Splodger offers a fun way to help children with special needs and others to practice and enjoy their interactions with a touch screen. Touch the screen to squirt yucky custard everywhere. Custard Splodger offers an interesting problem solving element, where players can learn to wait to allow the custard splodger to fill up and provide a really big squirt. The built-in options allow you to control the speed that the splodger moves across the bottom of the screen. Key features • Creative experimental play without the mess. • Black background for maximum contrast. • Clear presentation with no visual clutter. • Bright feedback for children with visual impairments. • Choose from three levels of difficulty (speed of the custard splodger). • Switch access options included (using available Bluetooth switch interfaces).

Drum Kit is an interactive music activity designed for children and young people of all abilities. Press the four large colourful pads to trigger drum sounds, musical motifs, or playback controls — and watch the screen come alive with animated visual effects. SIX MUSIC STYLES Choose from Big Band, Ragtime, Classical, Dance, Disco/Funk, and Jazz — each with a curated playlist of songs that loop and cycle at the press of a button. Songs range from Joplin ragtime to Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Debussy, jazz bebop, and four-on-the-floor disco. Pressing the same style button again advances to the next song in the playlist. THREE PLAYING MODES • Drums — each pad plays a different drum sound using high-quality sampled percussion (kick, snare, hi-hat, cymbal) • Motifs — each pad plays a short musical phrase tuned to the current song's key, so it always sounds musical • Control — pad 1 plays, pad 2 stops, pads 3 & 4 play kick and snare TWO VISUAL STYLES Switch between the Young (bright, playful) and Older (metallic, sophisticated) interfaces to suit any preference. Your choice is remembered between sessions. HIGH QUALITY AUDIO Background music is played using WebAudioFont — a bank of high-quality sampled instruments covering piano, strings, brass, bass, and full GM percussion. All music is stored on-device for offline playback. KEYBOARD ACCESSIBLE Full keyboard shortcuts for all four pads, play, stop, style selection, tempo, and volume — making the app accessible without touch.
