Customer Reviews

Great
This is a great product. My 10 year old and 8 year old (who has Down Syndrome) are really using this, and they love the games.

IEP
My daughter has an IEP in school and this product was recommended by her teacher. She can use it while reading books when I am not around. If she types in the word she can’t read then it will speak it back to her and she will have a better understanding of the book. I think its a great product. Thank you!

Franklin KID-1240 Children’s Talking Dictionary and Spell Corrector
My son is non verbal and he uses this product to talk. He types his words in and then hits speak. It is well priced, a great size for him to carry around and the voice is very clear.
