Thanks for sharing the fantastic ideas and the list of apps, Marie! Starting with very simple actions goes right along with how children naturally learn cause-and-effect so is a great way to start teaching it. I’m curious…what kind of things do you do with the glow sticks?

For visually impaired children, I use a light box to place toys on, and also incorporate flashlights and glow sticks. I use the iPad with several children, although only for a few minutes at a time. Some apps I’ve found that are good for cause and effect are

I Love Fireworks
Fluidity
Cause and Effect Sensory Sound Box
Cause and Effect Sensory Light Box
Draw Stars!
Baby Touch (Zoola)
Sound Box (Sago Mini)

These activities are for children who are just beginning to understand cause and effect.
