Opening Up the World for Learners with Down Syndrome.
Every child with Down syndrome brings a unique personality and a spark of individuality.
What is Down Syndrome?
Down syndrome occurs when there's an extra copy of chromosome 21. Each individual with Down syndrome is unique; some may be more independent, while others may require more support. However, children with Down syndrome often exhibit amazing personalities and may display unique talents in areas such as music and drama. They can express themselves creatively in various ways. Activities with clear visuals, such as those found in HelpKidzLearn software, are often enjoyed by them.
How HelpKidzLearn helps learners with Down Syndrome.
HelpKidzLearn software is designed to make learning engaging, fun and motivating. This is crucial for children with Down syndrome who might need extra encouragement to connect with educational materials. Our extensive library of playful activities allows them to learn independently at their own pace, in a stress-free environment. Our activities are bursting with bright colours and clear, uncluttered designs to engage learners and reinforce concepts.
Personalised learning with ChooseIt Maker and ChooseIt Readymades.
HelpKidzLearn ChooseIt Maker provides a personalised learning experience allowing you to cater to the individual strengths and learning styles of each child, which is particularly important for children with Down syndrome who may have unique learning needs. Creating personalised activities can help develop communication, social skills and cognitive development through interactive activities. Plus, you can make it even more fun by letting children create their own activities in ChooseIt Maker! It’s that easy.
Multi-sensory storytelling for learners with Down Syndrome.
Our Inclusive Stories are a powerful learning tool for children with Down syndrome. They help develop an understanding of social situations (like internet safety), in a safe and controlled environment. Inclusive Stories are a great way to connect with others allowing children to experience a range of emotions and situations sparking imagination and social interaction. Encouraging your young learners to help tell the story through the suggested sensory resource following the simplicity and clear structure of our stories. Each story includes a bank of resources that can used to help children create their own stories or you can use ChooseIt Maker ‘Share Codes’, which allow you to create ChooseIt Maker activities all about your chosen story.
Designed for accessibility.
At HelpKidzLearn, inclusivity is paramount. Our activities are accessible through touch, switches, eye gaze, mouse, and keyboard. This reduces frustration and learning barriers, leading to better engagement and information retention for children with Down syndrome. Everyone can access the activities in a way that works best for them.
Building confidence and independence.
HelpKidzLearn enables children with Down syndrome by providing activities that build confidence and promote independence. Through interactive and engaging activities, children can practice and develop new skills at their own pace. Helping them gain a sense of achievement and pride, encouraging independence in both learning and daily activities. The software's intuitive design ensures that children can navigate and complete tasks independently, supporting their confidence in learning.
Engaging families and caregivers.
HelpKidzLearn recognizes the vital role families and caregivers play in a child's development. Our software offers easy-to-use resources and activities, creating opportunities for meaningful engagement and support. Turn-taking activities like Basketball, counting songs, or listening to Inclusive Stories provide opportunities for families to join in. By involving families and caregivers, HelpKidzLearn helps reinforce skills and concepts learned through play, creating a consistent and supportive learning environment. This not only enhances the child's learning experience but also strengthens the bond between children and their families, promoting a supportive environment.
Tracking progress, celebrating success.
We understand that every milestone is a cause for celebration! HelpKidzLearn tools like Insight, ChooseIt Maker and Readymades allow you to track and monitor a child's progress over time. This data empowers you to set goals, personalise activities even further, and create a truly individualized learning experience. At HelpKidzLearn, we believe that every child deserves the chance to explore, learn, and grow. By making our software accessible and engaging for children with Down syndrome, we hope to help children open their world, a little bit at a time.
