WHAT'S BEEN THE WORD FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
I would highly recommend the purchase of this app, it’s so appealing to children of all ages and abilities! My 4 year old child loves this app, it engages her with bright pictures, music and colourful graphics! I also use this app in the classroom with children who experience language and communication difficulties. They are fully engaged and respond positively to the activities. Love that you can also adjust the levels on this app to suit all abilities! Excellent resource worth the money!
I bought this app for my five year old as a fun eductional game and it certainly meets that criteria! He absolutely loved it and I watched him really thinking through his word choices - it got his brain working! The educational games (odd one out, matching pairs with a twist, catergorisation, another one) have really helped him build stronger word knowledge. There are so many practise opportunities which ensures that it delivers on expanding vocabulary! I loved how easy to use this app was and that we will be able to adapt the difficulty level as his vocabulary expands. The characters are adorable and the reward games are very motivating for children! I am delighted with my purchase - excellent value for money too!
What a great app! As a Speech and Language Therapist who works abroad a lot, physical resources are often not practical to take with me and so I often use iPad apps in my sessions; however I've found that so many of the speech therapy apps on the market are poorly designed and don't properly target the skills they claim to. Let's Expand is quite different though; well thought-out, engaging for kids, and properly addresses vocabulary development. It's customisable too so you can alter the difficulty based on the level you're working at. Great stuff, highly recommended, and my kiddos who've used it so far love it!
Pip84 / 5 Stars
The Let's Expand Communication App is a great tool for targeting vocabulary. The categories and vocabulary used range from easy to hard, and you can change the difficulty level if needed for each section. While only the Northern Ireland English version is currently available, Ruth does plan to add both UK English and American English soon. Northern Ireland English is a bit different from American English, but the difference is minimal and can be worked around. I especially like the "reward games" offered after each vocabulary task.

Our Mission
This inaugural app has been designed for children with expressive language delays, more specifically word retrieval difficulties. The app which can be used on both smartphones and tablets, uses games to encourage the development of specific strategies in children who find it difficult to access the wide range of vocabulary they have stored in their little heads. This language development difficulty can impact on fluency, confidence and academic skills, but Let’s Expand ….Vocabulary is here to help!
