Italian First Words Lite

Built by a father of an autistic child with speech delay. Synthetic phonics and letter sounds for toddlers and children with autism, speech delay, ASD and PECS needs.

Italian First Words Lite teaches children the sounds of letters through synthetic phonics and connects those sounds to Italian words. Three hint settings (color, letter, or both together) adjust the challenge alongside six difficulty settings that grow with your child. The thumbnail navigation lets children browse and explore all the words freely, with no timers and no pressure.

Featured by Apple on What's Hot for the iPhone on the US and Italian App Stores, in two categories: Games/Educational and Games/Kids.

SYNTHETIC PHONICS

ReadnLearn apps use the systematic phonics method recommended by leading educational authorities. Children start with the sounds of letters (phonemes), then learn how those sounds build into syllables and words. This approach is recommended for all children and has proven especially effective for children with autism, speech delay and dyslexia.
