Here at LearningWorks for Kids, we make it our business to break down the walls between kids and learning, covering the latest apps, games and digital technologies we find to hold powerful potential for growth in alternative learners.

One of the biggest topics we explore is how children dealing with the challenges of autism spectrum disorders can benefit from the emerging range of apps designed specifically with their needs in mind.

“I Want to Say” is a new YouTube documentary that highlights the real-life challenges this demographic of children face, telling touching stories of how technology is bridging the gaps of communication, giving kids a voice and bringing families closer together.

Whether autism touches you or someone you know, or you simply want to enjoy a heartwarming story, we highly recommend you take the time to watch this movie. So, check out the trailer below, or head over to YouTube for the full, half-hour film.

Thanks to Joy from Go Go Games for the heads up!
