Another Hi Tony, Hope this is helpful as a start: PEAL SOFTWARE is designed specifically to teach language skills to children with a developmental age from 18 months to 8 years. There are three program disks: Keytalk; Exploratory Play; and Representational Play. Disks require the use of the Muppet Learning Keys Keyboard which plugs into the game port of the Apple Computer. For additional information contact Peal Software, 2210 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 806, Santa Monica, CA 90403 or telephone 213-559-2375 extension 1510.

Disabilities - Community Support Program? I'm working on a proposal based on the Juneau AMI group housing and independent living units. I'd like to see a similar group residence/independent living units/respite center running here within 2 years. -rsr- ... There is no fate that can not be surmounted by scorn - A.
