Happy Thanksgiving!
From all of us at GKApps

Get your children involved with Thanksgiving using our apps! Our Apps can be used by anyone at any age. Below we are using our First Then Visual Schedule HD app and our Scene Speak app to show you some examples of how your child can help out with dinner and setting the table.

Life skills are so important for all ages, not just those with special needs. Having a visual can help keep them on track and a reference to refer back to.

Using First Then Visual Schedule HD, we are making a side dish and a dessert. You can have one schedule or break them down into smaller schedules. You can even do a grocery store list that can be checked off as you navigate the store.

Here we gather the ingredients and the necessary utensils. You can show turning on the oven or burner (adult supervision if needed). You have five viewing option on the app, choose the one that fits your child's viewing need. The check list is optional.

Gather the actual ingredients and take photos and measurement.

Show step by step instruction.

Five viewing options are avaliable for the iOS version of FTVS HD
