Helpful
"We used the travel deck for Pearson this summer with my son. He is 4 yrs old and has ASD. He doesn’t fully understand the concept of waiting yet! But we showed him the stories of going through security and boarding the plane and it helped him to understand what the next steps were. He’s very good with visual schedules so I find these social stories just as great!"
— Google user
Helps my daughter
"This App has been incredibly helpful with my daughters daily living skills. Its helping her navigate our community and recognize processes that get her from start to finish. I highly recommend it!"
Fantastic visual support tool
"As a speech/language pathologist working with autistic children and young adults, MagnusCards is a fantastic way to offer visual supports to those who may need an immediate visual tool in their home, community, or school. The Card Decks on a phone or tablet allows individuals to be independent and confident in their everyday life!"
