First Phrases Lite is an educational app designed for iPhone users. This interactive and beautifully illustrated app is perfect for toddlers and speech-delayed children who are learning how to put basic English phrases together. The app provides many opportunities for children to hear, see, and say/record 10 different verb + noun combinations, such as "eat the carrot," "drive the train," "close the door," "drink the juice," "sleep on the bed," "turn on the light," and more. A delightful cat performs these actions, with 28 possible animation combinations.

The app is a great way to teach the article "the" in a meaningful phrase context. It includes user settings for up to three children and allows the user to repeat the action once, twice, or three times in the settings for maximum auditory input. The child then watches an animation of the cat performing the command to help associate the words and their meaning. The app is especially powerful for children with speech delays and autism spectrum disorders who need strong visual support and minimal background clutter. Developed by noted speech-language pathologist and author Patti Hamaguchi, M.A., CCC-SLP, this app is committed to bringing high-quality interactive and colorful apps at affordable prices.
