LePetit.app is the first mobile application for children, parents, pedagogues and child therapists that contains audio stories and fairy tales in the literary languages of Bosnia and Herzegovina (soon in Croatian and Serbian).
The focus of the application is on learning correct speech and diction and building children's vocabulary by listening to more than 170 incredible stories told by professional narrators - famous actors and actresses from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
LePetit.app features well-known classic fairy tales as well as contemporary stories by acclaimed Bosnian children's writers including 100 unique "therapeutic" stories by globally renowned Australian author Susan Perrow.
These stories help children to face challenging life situations (death in the family, divorce, birth of a brother or sister, loss of a loved one...), demanding behavior (anger, aggression, boredom, withdrawal...), and everyday challenges and habits (defecating in bed, bathing, dressing, challenges with food...and much more).
LePetit.app contains more than 20 hours of quality audio content suitable for children 2 - 7 years old. All texts were checked by writers, proofreaders, child psychologists and educators, and more than 20 famous Bosnian actors and actresses narrated the stories professionally in the languages of Bosnia and Herzegovina (soon also in Croatian and Serbian).
LePetit.app now also contains a complete speech therapy program of speech exercises for preschool children that help them learn the correct articulation of problematic sounds in our language.
