Is your child learning to read? Does your child enjoy sounding out words? Do your students need practice working with consonant digraphs, blend onsets, and rime chunks? If so, Word Snap is here to help! Here is the working description along with a few screenshots from the iPad app: We are excited to announce that our new word game, Word Snap, is nearing completion. I could also see this being a useful conversation aid for trans kids who are out to their parents but want to share basic information without having to explain everything themselves. The home icon returns you to the first screen. To access the section related to gender identity, you tap and hold the bottom-left corner of the main screen for a few seconds. My aim was to offer one way they could explore their identities in a protected way. While my wife and I are supportive of our kids, the reality is that many trans youth do not have supportive home environments. This is probably one of the simpler apps I’ve developed since much of it is just web viewer content but curating the links took a lot of time and figuring out how to make it safe for trans youth to use (it’s free, there are no ads, and it doubles as a somewhat limited soothing sound player) took most of my mental energy. My wife and I have been learning a great deal about gender identity from places like Gender Spectrum 1 and frankly from our kids as well. My two kids came out as transgender (she/her and they/she pronouns) just recently. ![]()
