Does anyone know any good games for the ipad for autism? My son is 4 and he loves his ipad and I would love to find him more fun and education games to help him.

These aren't specifically for autism, but my son just turned 5 and here are some of his favorites on my iPhone:

- Ant Smasher (completely uneducational, and just what it sounds like)
- Teach Me First Grade (activities in math, spelling, and Dolch sight words that earn coins for virtual stickers)
- Brain Pop (daily 3-5 min cartoon videos on a variety of topics, from humanities to math and science)
- Chicks (lead your chicks to safety)
- Pills vs. Candy (poison control game to teach difference between similar looking pills/ candies)
- Doodle Truck (guide your dump truck to the finish without losing the cargo)
- Fruit Ninja (use a finger swipe to cut fruit)
- Model Me Going Places (social stories for several outings)
- My Healthy Smile (social stories for oral care)
- Kids Fireman (practice dialing 911, put out a fire, and rescue a cat)
- Music For Little Mozarts (very basic music theory featuring a cartoon mouse and bear)
- Rocket Math (developmental math earns the pieces to build rockets)
- Read Me Stories (a new story every day)
- Talking Tom (Tomcat repeats what you say and performs a few actions)
- Verbs with Milo (speech, featuring milo the mouse)
