About this app
Free trial-before-you-buy version - no ads or in-app purchases
Boo helps children practice the language sounds that the child needs to get better at. He is meant to attract spontaneous imitation and repetition of Swedish language sounds and simple syllables. At the same time, he strengthens the useful awareness of what happens in the mouth when you make sounds, by clearly showing how to make the sounds. (This is called phonological awareness and is documented to be important for learning to read and write.)
The app is developed by a licensed speech therapist. The children can use the app by themselves or together with an adult. By the child using several senses at the same time to imitate and rehearse, it becomes easier to overcome obstacles and learn to sound correctly.
Who can Boo help?
The app is developed for children between 3 and about 6 years old who have, or would need to have, contact with a speech therapist or speech therapist due to difficulties with pronunciation. The app helps and motivates children to:
• practice one or more individual language sounds
• practice distinguishing between voiced and voiceless consonants
• practice putting sounds together and harmonizing them into simple syllables, or
• train the connection between the letters and their corresponding language sounds in early reading learning.
Boo can be a stepping stone to better pronunciation and learning to read!
Boo can also be helpful for those who are learning Swedish, for example newly arrived children or adults.
NOTE - This is a free trial version with only the P B A E language sounds and some limited functionality. The few language sounds in the lite version are the defining difference between this and the full version that costs money. Feel free to download this and try it! Boo makes sounds and shows with his mouth how to make the sounds individually or if you combine a consonant and vowel into a simple syllable (coarticulation).
If the child spontaneously imitates Boo and needs to practice more sounds and syllables, there is the full version with the consonants P B T D K G S F V M N L R, all Swedish vowels and more functions, including useful tips from the speech therapist.

Boo is developed based on speech therapy and therapeutic experience with children with verbal dyspraxia or phonological language disorder. The app has been tested by 8 children aged 3-6 years who attend a speech therapist. The tests have shown great motivation for play training and spontaneous repetition of sounds in a way that proved difficult before.
The app is developed and designed to be used on a tablet as such is easier to handle for small children's fingers. However, it works well technically even on mobile screens.
