Following Picture Directions

Practice following one-step and two-step directions with colorful illustrations, customizable difficulty, and detailed session reports.

Following Picture Directions helps children build receptive language skills by practicing multi-step verbal directions. Designed by a certified speech-language pathologist, this app provides structured, repeatable practice for one of the most common goals in speech therapy.

How It Works

Children listen to a spoken direction and tap the correct images in order. Directions range from simple one-step commands ("Touch the hat") to complex two-step sequences with adjectives and varied syntax ("Before you touch the red hat, touch the blue shirt").

8 Progressive Difficulty Levels

• One-step: objects only, adjectives only, adjective + object
• Two-step: objects, adjectives, adjective + object, before/after, first/then

Each level targets a specific linguistic structure, letting therapists and parents focus practice on exactly the right challenge.
