PES kids

Description

PES for kids is an open ended software which provides early communication experience, to very young communicatively impaired children, kindergarten children and children of first grade at primary school.

It combines sound, motion, text and image into a learning environment which can be accessed using a switch or a mouse. Its activities include scanning of images/animations (scanning speed can be adjusted) and selecting one image/animation by pressing a button. It includes activities with 2, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 30 options.

Teachers can edit the existing content or add their own, but they can also change the user interface according to their students’ needs.
