It is not always easy to understand what your child is trying to say. Matraquinha helps them show what they want, feel and need, so you, their school and therapists can understand and care for them together.
Created by a family living with autism, Matraquinha helps your child show what they want, feel and need, so you can understand each other better every day.
Use ready-made food, drink and fruit boards so your child can indicate what they want to eat, drink or do.
Use boards prepared for hospitals, appointments and other situations when your child needs to say what they are feeling.
Visually organize activities such as taking a bath, brushing their teeth and going to school, helping your child understand each step of the day.
Add photos of family, home, pets or familiar places, creating categories made just for them.
Switch between real photos and illustrations, or between list and grid views, depending on what is easiest for your child to recognize.
Choose a language and character, Boy or Girl, and use a human voice that gently guides your child with different intonations for each emotion.
