~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What is the Autism Discovery Tool?

An innovative, new approach to learning about autism using an immersive play style.

This educational app demonstrates sensory differences common to those on the autism spectrum and offers tools and strategies to help navigate through a busy sensory world.

Aimed for all ages on the spectrum, as well as those that love and support them (parents, teachers, siblings, friends, etc.), this app sheds light on the sensory side of autism.

In a world where autism is still largely misunderstood, difficulties with sensory experiences are often mistaken as “meaningless” behaviors, obsessions, or tantrums.

The Autism Discovery Tool is a fun learning resource for homes, schools, and communities, used either individually or with others. This app helps stimulate conversation and problem-solving around sensory processing issues.

Helping create better sensory environments … one app at a time!
