Social Skills With Billy for iOS

The Social Skills with Billy app was designed by a speech pathologist to allow children with autism to practice their social skills and pragmatic language in real-life situations and to practice identifying various feelings.

To practice social skills and pragmatic language, children are presented with over 100 real-life situational dialogues pertaining to birthday parties, school, home, restaurants, a hairdresser, a department store, a library, a doctors office, a dental office, family dinners, baseball games, play dates, airports, a garage sale, Halloween, Valentines Day, a New Years Eve party, visiting a sick grandmother, a field trip, a new baby, general conversations, making new friends, family vacations, and peer conflicts.

To practice identifying feelings, children are presented with real-life photos and short case scenarios.

The Social Skills with Billy app offers seven main activity categories, targeting the following skills:

- Identifying correct responses in dialogue

- Identifying wrong vs. right responses in dialogue

- Stating correct responses in dialogue

- Identifying feelings by following directions with pictures

- Identifying feelings in a multiple-choice format with pictures
