Guest guest Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 There was an article this morning regarding this browser for autistic children... This is the info on the browser and is free... I downloaded it and my grandson is a high functioning 4 year old autistic. ZAC is the first web browser developed specifically for children with autism, and autism spectrum disorders such as Asperger syndrome, pervasive developmental disorders (PDD), and PDD-NOS. We have made this browser for the children - for their enjoyment, enrichment, and freedom. Children touch it, use it, play it, interact with it, and experience independence through ZAC. ZAC is the zone that will permit your child to interact directly with games (a LOT of games) and activities (focused on MANY interests) that cater specifically to kids who display the characteristics of autism spectrum disorders, like impairments in social interaction, impairments in communication, restricted interests and repetitive behavior. ZAC has been an effective tool for kids with low, medium and high functioning autism. ZAC focuses on the children and their interaction - But we also provide an excellent forum for parents, caretakers, teachers, and others to share their experiences, tools and resources and to unite as a caring, compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable community. It is said that " it takes a village to raise a child " , and that is exponentially true for raising a child with autistic spectrum disorders. The power of your experience yesterday is going to be instrumental in helping someone successfully tackle the circumstances of today. Hayden and I tried it and he loved it and was ve4ry attentive and tried work the program... I would definitely recommend this program and you can either install or just run from the program... Here is the url for more info and the program download.... I hope it is as useful to you as it looks like it will be for us... Dee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
