Ok, this is advertising - so report me if you want to Grin

My friend has just written this ipad App for Makaton users.

I thought it looked really good - but don't use Makaton or Pecs myself so I could be wrong :)

But I do know some of you are always on the lookout for good iPad apps....

Can I just ask, I can't link to it but the bit I saw just seems to be Makaton symbols etc. Please can you help me with this, 'cos I think Ipads Apps are free (honestly have no idea) but what's the difference between this and looking stuff up on websites such as Mr Tumble? I have friends who I would recommend this to but need more info please.

OK I just got on to it, wow. Some of the kids I work with have SN, their parents would love this!! There's the opportunity to not only access signs but PECS too and stuff that you can programme. I would love to hear what parents with SN kids think, I have really no idea but it looks OK to me.

I had the chance to have a little play on this app when I was on a makaton course at a school that was used in the trials. I was very impressed and now i want it, i want it, i want it.
