App Party

Starting tomorrow there is a party going on over on FB so be sure to check it out. A4cwsn is throwing an app party. You could get some great apps and will be supporting an amazing cause. A4cwsn is working to get ipads into the hands of special needs children across the US and even in other countries.

If you are looking for appropriate apps for your child be sure to check out their website
http://a4cwsn.com/ . There are videos of many, many apps in action to give you a good idea of what will or won't work for your child. Their site has saved me a great deal of money by allowing me to see apps before buying them.

No post is complete without pics of my happy boy and his ipad, busy day so haven't had time to download new ones. Here are a few of my favorites from the past month.

Combining technology. Playing baseball on the computer with his head switch and using the ipad with his eye gaze to tell me whose turn it is and when he is winning.
Using his ipad during a craft project in school
Using his head switch to activate an app on the ipad for the first time. Sounding board is the app he is using, he loved being able to tell me he wanted to watch tv all by himself. He didn't need me to "read" his response(the cord is from his speakers, the switch is connected by blue tooth).
