"As a teacher, working with children around the world, I have witnessed how Ballyland apps allow children with and without a visual impairment to play and learn together. Ballyland Sound Match is not only a fun game, but it also helps children to acquire important skills preparing them for use of technology and mathematics. I have combined the use of this app with tactile diagrams of grids, rows, and columns to create blended teaching, producing accessible multi-sensory learning that highly benefits children with blindness and vision impairment."
