Fittle is a revolution in education for the visually challenged. Just watch the video (above) to see how children can learn new words with word/shape puzzles through which they also learn the shape of the object that this word represents. Imagine teaching a visually impaired kid that Turtle is spelt T-U-R-T-L-E, and then being able to let them feel the turtle in their hands, as they learn the spelling. Plus there is an additional app that allows them to extend that experience and even hear the sound that the animal or object makes. Imagine the joy of a child who can feel the form of an airplane in his hands, especially, after he has put together the entire airplane himself.
Fittle is designed to empower visually impaired kids with all the resources s/he needs to learn about the world around him as early as possible. And to allow them to show off just how cool his toys are to the kids who can see…
