We bought the Birdsong for my elderly aunt who lives with us due to health and mobility issues. She is able to clearly and freely operate the Birdsong due to the simplicity of its design. When I asked her about her use so that I could pass that along she said that she, "Loves it!!!" and that she uses the memory games the most but is now starting to use Facebook and check her e-mail on it. She uses it not just daily but multiple times a day. She really does love it and so do we! It was so simple to set up.

I would like to submit a testimonial about the Birdsong tablet our family gave my dad for Christmas 2019. It is the best gift ever given to him! I analyzed the tablet before giving it to Dad, and was greatly impressed with the depth of curated content. It ranges from simple and soothing videos for anxious minds, to deep and thought provoking material for engaged thinking minds. The buttons for each category are intuitive and invite exploration. My dad is 95 and a World War II vet. His first evening he contentedly listened to BBC Music Memories radio from the 1940’s, recalling where he was with each song and news report. Since that time he has explored many buttons and has gone deep into the available content. He can check out the news on the internet, chuckle at an old time TV show, watch a high quality historical documentary, listen to music from his favorite genres, or look at pictures our family has uploaded to his tablet. Plus so much more! Again, the depth and variety is amazing. All of this is done safely with no concern for viruses or “gotcha ads.” Further, if Dad ever does get “lost in the weeds” he can simply push the red home button and return to familiar territory. Dad’s Birdsong tablet keeps his mind active, curious, and current. I liken it to a 24/7 airplane ticket for his brain and spirit. He is freed to spontaneously “take a vacation” and explore any place he wants to go, right from the comfort of his chair.

Enjoy discovering new music and games. I play Wordmeister almost every night as scrabble was always a favorite game. Also like that I can read my email and follow Facebook with my Birdsong tablet. Having photos to reminisce with is a great feature. When we get a faster internet I will enjoy the lectures also.
