[blindkid] Braille note

[Dr. Denise M Robinson]

Apex--braille note has always been my student's fav--HUGE advantage of
having it at home AND at school--will learn braille very quickly with
it---school always provides---kids will learn it VERY fast--easy to learn
too fantastic to put all the words here---some schools will make you sign a
waiver that says if the child breaks it at home---you have to pay for the
repair----yes, insist on this tool for your child
