The infamous iPad has been a hot topic since its first debut in Spring 2010. For children without a voice, the iPad is more than just an expensive "toy" and "tablet". Recently, a list of vocabulary words came out for children around the age of 2. For children with disabilities, some may not speak until Kindergarten – but through use of this iPad it gives hope and promise that a child with Autisim, does have a voice and can be heard much sooner.
