" I dont really know of any apps but I know that one mom here uses the ipod touch fr communication. There are lots of pictures on the ipod like toilet bus etc and the child uses them to communication and so does the mom with the child. Its also handy for to play dvds when travelling. If you hear of any good apps do let us know !! Katie xx "

" You are not going to believe this. There is an app for ipod touch. it is called proloquo2go It is an application for augmentative communication. Too bad it is $ 189.00 US dollars. I guess I will have to check it out more and start saving. Ever since I have been telling moms about the use of the ipod touch I was told some moms here in my town have been really using it. "

" Hi Levinmar,
Welcome to DS. I'm not sure what you need for apps for your sister. I am very excited to find this link. My son is very delayed and uses pictures for communication. Wanted to share it.
