LessonPix

Today we are sharing the website LessonPix. http://lessonpix.com/   This is a fabulous online resource for those of us who love to create our own therapy materials. If you have more time than money you will love this site.  This is a very affordable subscription service from which you can create customized individual therapy materials to fit your needs.

The subscription service is only $24 per year and you have access to 8000 original and scalable pictures. From the picture library you can have a choice of how you wish to have the image: color, outline, or stencil.  With those pictures you can create items such as these:





 PECS cards





 Stick Puppets


 Dominoes







  • Bingo Cards
  • Coloring Pages
  • Picture Cards
  • Pattern Strips
  • Spinners & Game Boards
  • Lacing Cards
  • Sorting Mats
  • Playing Cards
  • and more 

One feature that is great for the SLP when making articulation materials is their Sound Finder tab which allows you to search for pictures with a particular sound.  You can even narrow your search by the sound position within the words: initial, medial, final or anywhere.  You can also search for pictures by pattern such as VC and only those pictures fitting that parameter will appear.  You can search specifically by letter, too. I would call it a bonus that they even give you the ability to search by rhyme. 

There is much more to this site than I am telling you about so please go explore it. They offer a "try it now for free" program which will indeed let you try it out.  You can create your own item and print it immediately.  I highly recommend you try it out for yourself.   They also offer video tutorials for those who have never created anything online like this and may be unfamiliar with how to do it.  

As we often state, Leah and I are not paid (or given products) to tell you about these sites which we share.  We simply share things we find that we think you would also like to know about.

Have a fun week with your kids!

President's Day

We’ve created a fun, generic, quick-play game to commemorate the birthdays of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. We simply call it Abe & George. Using a spinner that says “Go to…” or “Back to…” players make their way around the game board to the finish. Use any of your child’s speech/ language task for the day and the game will hold their interest! $12.99 (2 game boards, 3 spinners, and 6 pawns) Order online at http://www.2galsspeechproducts.com

If you will be doing a President's theme in February this will add fun to your therapy!
