Designed for speech pathologists, ABA therapists, and other data-driven educators/clinicians. This app was developed in cooperation with an ASHA Certified Speech & Language Pathologist, Yay Data is an elegantly simple tool for data collection with highly effective auditory reinforcement. Choose from dozens of sounds to give auditory feedback on the student's performance. Watch as your student smiles and laughs at the funny sounds, striving to change their behavior to be able to hear the positive sound again. "I had a student eat potato chips for the first time just so he could hear the screaming goat. Its amazing the impact humor can have." - Certified Feeding Therapist "I was tracking the students progress using hash marks on pencil and paper, I now use Yay Data every day to keep track of my students data. I love how simple it is. It does exactly what I need it to do and no more." - ASHA Certified Speech & Language Pathologist.

Speech Kingdom helps children with speech, language, social delays and disorders. Working with SLPs, psychologists, behaviorists, therapists, special-education teachers, and parents, we have created fun, easy-to-use, interactive social exercises and skill-based games devised to improve communication. Speech Kingdom is a learning tool and is intended to be used by students in conjunction with single or multiple supervising adults, therapists or teachers. Customized student avatars, created by the student, actually put the child right into their own story. Social stories target “theory of mind” (patent pending) and are available in various stages of speech and social language development—fundamental, beginner, intermediate, and proficient—instead of age or grade level. Dozens of setting modifications are offered to tailor each experience for students of varying abilities. The application runs on virtually any device and from any browser. It’s enjoyable, and it’s easy to get started. Join us today in Speech Kingdom, the Land of Social Communication.
