Train Talk! vs Kea Kids: Preschool Games 2-5+ Usage & Stats
Train Talk is for children who love to talk about trains. This app helps direct that conversation to learn to ask and answer WH questions. Here are 128 pictures with question prompts and sample answers to encourage turn taking, spontaneous speech, conversational skills, and auditory comprehension. Who knew Train Talk could be so much fun!
Appropriate for precocious Pre-school and Adult individuals that have a fondness for Trains. Exercises will be interesting to Adults with Aphasia, Apraxia, and Dysarthria for speech, language, and literacy practice.
This task requires the ability to attend to a series of complex auditory stimuli, analyze the sound segments, and imitate these sounds in sequence. It requires auditory processing at the sound, syllable, phrase, and sentence levels with imitative or spontaneous expressive articulatory production.
This is an excellent game for building auditory memory, practicing question formation, responding to questions, and practicing forming sentences with pronouns. Reading can also be practiced by turning the volume off.
A clear speech model is presented for the child to imitate and they can record and play back their own speech. The clinician can choose from three scoring methods. 1. Score each response as correct, distorted or incorrect. 2. Score responses as correct, distorted, substituted, or omitted. 3. Score productions based on whether they are spontaneously correct/incorrect or imitatively correct/incorrect.
This app is based on the Train Talk game from LocuTour’s Train Time CD.

WHAT KIDS LEARN
For Early Talkers:
High interest word buttons are great for exploring and learning new words! Kids can create their own phrases using simple opposites which leads to great learning.
For Early Readers:
Kids learn to read and use high interest nouns and simple action words to create their own phrases. You can support your child’s reading by talking about the letters and letter sounds when reading the words together.
For Late Talkers:
Just like speech therapy, we target high interest nouns and action words to encourage kids to practice speech and play with the words in different 2 and 3 word phrases combinations.
This is especially useful for kids with apraxia, and motor planning difficulties.
For Non Verbal Kids:
Some kids can communicate more easily using an AAC app, Cars & Bugs has been designed to be used as a First-Steps AAC to help kids learn to communicate using a device.
