I received an IPAD for my birthday. And of course I used the excuse that I wanted it for Bella. Well I really wanted it for myself and new Bella would get use out of it.
But can I tell you she is loving it. and her speech therapist , Lisa, who spoke at the conference in Orlando, gave me a list of apps.
WOW can I just say that!!!
She knows so many things that I was unaware of because she can't always say it.
She speaks in 3-4 word sentences. And not always clear to everyone.
But using the touch screen is just amazing. But I have to tell her to tap slowly.
The tracing app is really working for her. She dosn't write, has been tracing letters for years. But using her finger is soooo much easier than a pencil. And she is more focused and less distracted.
She dosn't verbally count to 20 but guess what she knows her numbers even past 20, so who cares if she can't count continuosly to 20.
Also, she dosnt' say her alphabet continuously, but KNOWS every letter in the alphabet. And I have been telling her teachers this since she was 5.
I could go on and on.
When I get home I will post the apps Bella is using now.
And if anyone wants the list just email me.
All I can say is the IPAD is a great resourse for our kids, and technically it does belong to BELLA!!!!
