Fabulous Find Friday: KidSpeak App

Today’s Fabulous Find is a very well done app from the Tuscon Medical Center for Children. This app is calledĀ KidsSpeak : Medical Preps for Kids. This app has photos of most of the rooms that a child might encounter in the hospital and walks them through all the machines and other tools that they might find in the room. It also has a digital whiteboard. This is a really cool feature that allows the child (or Child Life Specialist) to draw on the body parts. What a great way to illustrate a medical condition!

There are so many apps out there, which are your favorite ones for children?
