Play Tip!
Children who have had trach tubes or who have trouble controlling vocalization can practice making louder and softer sounds - and be rewarded for it! Just add one of the fun switch adapted toys, and watch your child work hard for the playful pay-off. You can adjust the Voice Activated Switch to pick the exact activation sound desired.

Concepts: Things that Go Together
Matching things that go together is a challenging cognitive skill for children with developmental delays to learn. It involves making a leap from, "this ball is the same as this ball", to "the ball and the bat go together". Things That Go Together uses clearly illustrated two piece puzzles to help children master this important developmental concept. The difficulty level can be adjusted by presenting either more or less options. For example: Does the fish go with the fishing rod or the tree? You can keep adding more choices to make the difficulty level match your child's level of learning.
