Articulation Arcade
Website testimonial
"Articulation Arcade has been a fun and engaging asset in my speech and language therapy sessions. I love the fact that I can choose multiple targets in various word positions and it easily moves from single words, to phrases, to sentences. I can highly recommend the app to other speech and language therapists working with children with speech sound disorders."

"Minimal Pairs Arcade brings the evidence-based minimal pairs therapy approach into a fun and engaging app. I highly recommend the full version which offers all speech sounds for a one-off purchase (no ads or subscriptions). As an SLT, I recommend this app to all my clients and constantly receive positive feedback from parents that speech homework is much easier to complete."

App Store review
"My son has a speech disorder & we've used this app previously to practice specific sounds he's been struggling with. It's easy to access - especially for busy parents like myself. There's also lots of variety which keeps speech practice interesting rather than hard work. Getting lots of practice is so important - so I definitely recommend this app."
