After watching their son with autism struggle with one-word drills in therapy yet sing along with ease while music was playing, Fort Worth parents Will and Arlyn Kantz combined their professional practices to create Precision Songs. Arlyn, a certified autism interventionist, and Will, a licensed counselor, broke down practical information such as “How old am I?” and put it to music on their first CD, Sing to Greet the World Around Me. The Social Questions track is personalized for your child and comes with a workbook of extension activities for each song. The songs have second versions that leave out the answer to the question, encouraging your child’s response and slowly bridging singing into speaking. The Kantzes have also entered the App world with their free Tuneville App for iPads, which makes the listen-and-learn lessons interactive. These enhancements to typical therapy sound like music to our ears.
