The Royal Institute for Deaf and Blind Children has just released an app aimed at developing children's listening and language skills.  It has been created by listening and spoken language specialists and is one of a series of Apps that are being created and will be released soon.

 The first app in the series, Old MacDonald, is now available on the iTunes app store for 99 cents.  To learn more about the app visit the RIDBC website

Firefly Pix is a very engaging free app that can be used to learn new vocabulary.  Watch hundreds of fireflies create a beautiful picture of simple letters, words, numbers or shapes.  The App will speak the word.  It also provides quizzes and a drawing component.
