Material Detail

'Go Go Games is an award-winning suite of casual games to support children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) in learning to quickly notice multiple features of the objects in the world around them – a specific perceptual skill that is essential to learning and comes naturally to most children, but is known to be a common difficulty for those with ASD.'

'Go Go Games uses the techniques of Pivotal Response Therapy (PRT), an evidence-based behavioral intervention which targets several common challenges for learners with ASD, including this particular perceptual ability.  Go Go Games provides the opportunity to build this critical skill by maneuvering trucks, trains, and spaceships through a trio of fantasy adventures. We designed the game to be simple, playful, and fun – though behind the scenes each matching sequence is carefully selected to gradually improve a player's ability to notice and respond to increasingly complex features.  We are very excited to translate a proven therapy into game format. We hope that your kids find this new teaching technique rewarding and fun! FEATURES: 3 different matching games to support a broad range of children on the autism spectrum 6 levels of difficulty to help a child to observe, scan, focus, and categorize Touch-sensitivity and responsiveness for players with fine motor challenges Positive rewards with verbal praise and delightful sounds to boost confidence; stress-free gaming experience with no penalties Original artwork, music, real voice files, and colorful animations'
