Pairing and Play: How Think! Becomes a Trusted Tool in Therapy and at Home


ree

In ABA and other therapeutic settings, pairing is the first and most crucial step: it’s how children learn to associate a tool or person with something positive. It builds trust and sets the tone for learning.

With Think!, pairing happens naturally. The game is engaging, responsive, and created with children’s comfort and joy in mind.


Why Pairing Matters

When a child enjoys an activity, they’re more likely to engage, try, and repeat. This is key for:

  • 🔁 Discrete Trial Training (DTT)

  • 🎯 Targeting behavior and speech goals

  • 💬 Encouraging communication and attention


How Think! Supports Effective Pairing

  • 🎮 Game-based reinforcement: Children feel rewarded with each interaction, without over-stimulation.

  • 🎨 Sensory-friendly design: Calm colors, clear audio, and predictable patterns reduce anxiety.

  • 📈 Built-in motivation: Challenges are just hard enough to excite without causing frustration.


Therapists can use Think! as part of their pairing phase, and parents can continue using it at home to build consistency and strengthen the learning relationship.

Think! isn’t just a fun break—it’s a purposeful, therapist-approved experience.
