Preschool

Going to the Playground is an app for use with a regular 9.7" iPad with five tactile and braille overlays to guide students through a virtual playground. Students learn orientation directions, such as left and right, in and out, and up and down, as they become familiar with the layout of a virtual playground. A QR code label comes with the materials to download the app.

In this app, users can generate hundreds of facial expressions by changing eyebrow position, eye direction, mouth type, hairstyles, and eyewear.
