Testimonials

 
What an enjoyable day!

"As a speech-language pathologist, I found the songs, interactions and social opportunities excellent for facilitating language skills in the children I work with. I was also pleased to realize that there will be applications for children with hearing loss, apraxia and autism. I look forward to implementing these newly learned skills in my own clinic. Thank you so much for this valuable information, Bonnie. What an enjoyable day!"
