Hearing development for toddlers with iPhone Apps
PINGO and hearing
Our sense of hearing is one of the most powerful senses in the human body. Some might even argue that this is more powerful than the sense of sight. What we sometimes fall short of understanding is that when we go about our way into the physical world, our body also proceeds upon the dictates of our own bodily instincts. What threats our eyes cannot see, our ears are most attuned to. You might not realize it at this point but it is your sense of hearing which you rely on most as you navigate through physical space.
Having said that, it is very important to develop the sense of hearing very well. And the precise time to develop this is early on in childhood. You might think that the automatic way to address this is to put your child to school, which is more or less the same old story for most of us. But with today’s advancements in technology, a child can be prepared well for this as early as 1-2 years old.
Pingo is an iphone app for kids learning slowly gaining a huge following because it was designed specifically to educate children on the basics of numbers and letters. Pingo boasts of an easy to use yet highly interactive platform which presents numbers, letters and images for the sole purpose of giving your child a most welcome advantage once he or she enters formal education in preschool.
For this discussion, it is very worthy to note that Pingo also includes a multitude of sounds that align well with the images presented in its exercises. All of these are small yet essential opportunities for your child to widen his or her own horizons and this is done from the safety of an app in your Ipad or Iphone. At $0.99, you can never go wrong with this app, especially as it aims to make your child more prepared for his future.
