This interactive, beautifully illustrated and animated app for the iPAD is perfect for the toddler or speech-delayed child who is learning how to put two-three words together or any child who is learning basic English phrases. It provides many opportunities to both hear (receptive), see, and say/record (expressive) 10 different verb + noun combinations, such as: eat the carrot, drive the train, close the door, drink the juice, sleep on the bed, turn on the light, and more. A delightful cat performs them, with 28 possible animation combinations. It is also a great way to teach the article the in a meaningful phrase context. To view a demonstration of the full version of this app, please check our YouTube demonstration to learn about its features: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXw4WPlrmwg**For more verb and character choices, we suggest upgrading to the full version of this app.First Phrases Lite includes user settings for up to 3 children.Hamaguchi Apps is dedicated to the mission of bringing high-quality apps to the general public and professionals for affordable prices. How you play: Tell the cat what to do! By touching the illustrated parts of the phrases in order (verb+ object forms: eat the carrot) the child hears the pre-recorded spoken phrase modeled. The user has the option to repeat this action once, twice or three times in the settings for maximum auditory input. The child then watches an animation of the cat performing the command to help the child associate the words and their meaning. Now its the childs turn to say it and tell the cat what to do! Touch the microphone and record, listen again, and watch the animal follow your direction. Use the optional visual support by tapping on the shapes above the microphone.This format is especially powerful for children with speech delays and autism spectrum disorders who need strong visual support with as little background clutter as possible, and for use in speech therapy sessions. The format also is a terrific way to support early literacy for left to right orientation, reading (with text on feature) and word boundaries. Options include text on/text off, recording feature on/off, presentation of the phrase in 3 segments (verb + the + object) or 2 segments (verb + the object).
