App Review - ChatterPix Kids

I wanted to share a cool app I found that will make practicing your speech sounds or working on language concepts such as retelling stories more fun.  It is called ChatterPix Kids (Apple app).

You can choose images and make them come to life by recording your voice practicing your speech goals.  As you play back your creation, you can listen and monitor your speech or response.  Click HERE for the link to find out more about this cool app.  See below for an example and more features of this app.
