Ludik has six quick and easy fun games with a reward system to motivate children to complete various repetitive tasks. Does your child have to practise words following speech therapy sessions? Learn how to spell new vocabulary? Does your child refuse to eat or dress? Does he or she have to do physiotherapy exercises? Using the Ludik app, determine the number of “stimuli” to be completed: a number of words to say, mouthfuls to swallow, repetitions of an exercise, etc. The child earns points after completing these actions. Points are recorded on the app. After reaching the required number of stimuli, the child can play a game of his or her choice for a predetermined period in settings. There are two types of scoring: • Standard progress indicator: Choose the number of actions (stimuli) to be completed before the child gets to play the game, regardless whether or not the child manages to complete them. • Fun progress indicator: Choose the number of actions (stimuli) to be completed before the child gets to play the game. Have fun! Available on iPad.
