EVDS coversFirst Words, First Words II, and First Verbs (Classic Versions)

First Words, First Words II, and First Verbs (Classic versions) will help children and adults master essential early vocabulary. These programs offer the consistent, focused, and supportive learning environment that many people with special needs require to acquire an initial vocabulary.


First Words
This program uses colorful pictures, an encouraging voice, and the lovable Blob to teach and test 50 of the earliest developing nouns within 10 categories. Each noun is represented by two illustrations.

First Words II
First Words II continues the training started by First Words. You'll find the same carefully thought-out design and format as First Words but a different animated creature, Breaker (he loves to dance), and new pictures to train 50 more basic nouns.

First Verbs
Learning verbs is more difficult than learning nouns. This unique program makes verb training much easier. First Verbs teaches 40 verbs, each represented by two animated pictures that show the verb action. An encouraging voice offers in-struction, and Roggi, an animated creature, reinforces learning with amusing antics.
