Talking Tiles -Set of 6

These great customisable big buttons are extremely versatile resources for teaching or therapy, with the advantage of being light, portable, simple to clean and quickly re-recordable (so easy to grade activities according to need). They have potential for use in a wide variety of settings for very different purposes. Some examples for reminiscence, learning or therapeutic use are listed below:

• Simply remove the transparent cover and insert a picture, symbol, photograph, text, image, diagram, illustration, newspaper clipping etc.
• Flick a switch and record up to 80 seconds of talking, singing, noises, natural sounds, instruments or music (includes AUDIO-IN so sound can be recorded directly from a CD Player/Computer via a 3.5mm cable, not included)
• Press the button to playback.

Each features a locking switch to protect messages from accidental erasure and they come with fixtures for wall mounting if this option is preferred.

• As a very simple AAC device, for example, selecting "Yes", "No" or "Maybe" to questions,
• Audible reminders to promote independence - for example - which medication to take when or how to operate equipment, set dials/buttons, help with procedures or processes.
• A tool to record messages for carers or visitors.
• A resource for sequencing tasks and everyday activities such as washing, dressing etc.
• Demonstrate articulation/sound matched to text, phonemes, images, or insert a diagram of oral motor exercises.
• Match object, shape, colour to its name.
• Use as a trail to follow directions and find the next tile, then the next one...
• Sequencing tasks by putting these next to objects and use these as verbal reminders - perhaps how to brush teeth or get dressed, or help with morning routines.
• Insert pictures of faces showing different emotions with related words "I feel sad" and help people express themselves.
• Use as part of a sensory story, for example why not record the sound of rain...
• Prompt memory recall by using images from the past with a recording that is relatable (for example a picture of Elvis and then a recording of someone singing one of his songs...)
