App Detail » Kids Songs Collection #2

What's New

Updated tool chain. Fixed bug fixes.

App Description

2nd such app from Kids Can Talk containing everything you need for a musical, fun, and effective speech learning sessions with your child or student. This app has songs, lyrics, goals for each song, video, suggestions and activities. And, for fun, challenge your child (or yourself) to a fun Word Game—the second option.
“Kids Songs Collection #2” is very, very child and teacher/parent friendly. Please think about it as a TOOL and not as a game. Games are fun and alluring, but this TOOL can improve your child’s speech more than any app – no matter how clever and flashy it is. So, let's take a look at both options....

The "Songs" option

This collection is unique because it contains speaking with music and rhythm. Why? Because some children find it easier to sing than to speak, and vice versa. Exposing children to both styles is key in achieving the maximum learning potential. Perfect for ages 2 – 6 and up.
We know now that children learn much faster and better through music, imitation, and interaction (interaction is key when working with young children). Many studies have concluded the magical power of music. So we wrote fun, enticing, and effective songs that help children with speech difficulties, speech development, learning English as a second language, and are effective for children with Autism, Apraxia, and Dyslexia. And… we give you more tools in this app: specific speech and language goals, lyrics to all songs so you can read them as you listen to a tune, also activities and suggestions on how to use these tunes with your child or student.
What’s included in the Kids Songs Collection #2

This rap encourages imitation of consonant-vowel structures using the consonants b, m, and w. There are 120 consonant-vowel structures included for children to practice.

The "Word Game" option

Perhaps your child or student is not ready yet to move/place the letters in order, but kids are very technology-savvy these day, so... who knows? Let them try! Or... have fun yourself. Our record so far is 27 seconds! Can you beat that?

"Because of your songs I have had children, who were non-verbal, start to vocalize and children, who were only grunting, begin to form sounds..." ~ Raelynne Lorenz, Speech-Language Pathologist.
