SwitchIt! Xmas Extra

by Inclusive Technology

Est. $30–$80, see price history

Typical price range, not a vendor quote. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The software is simple to use once it's running, but it arrives by email and has to be installed. If the learner uses a switch, that switch also has to be connected and tested. A family member or teacher can do this with the instructions in about half an hour. Tuning the steps and reward timing for one learner is part of getting good results, so guided setup fits better than self-serve.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

SwitchIt! Xmas Extra is a Windows program of festive-themed activities that a learner can run with a switch, mouse, touch screen, keyboard, IntelliKeys or Concept Keyboard. It has 12 Christmas and New Year sequences, such as building a snowman, pulling a cracker, watching fireworks and decorating the tree. Each one is offered three ways: a step-by-step animation, a picture-building activity, or large flash cards with spoken support. A picture menu lets the learner choose scenes on their own, and you can adjust the number of steps and the timing of rewards to fit one learner's needs. Settings can be saved for different users. It also comes with printable worksheets (dot-to-dot, sequencing, colouring, matching and more) and braille worksheets meant for swell paper and a heat fuser. It works best for children who are building early switch skills, and you'll want a switch and a way to connect it if switch access is the goal.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Once it's installed, open the program and choose a scene from the picture menu to try an activity with a mouse or touch screen.
  • With a guide
    1. Install the program on a Windows computer from the files sent by email (the vendor says delivery takes 2-3 working days).
    2. If the learner will use a switch, connect it through a switch interface and check that it activates the program.
    3. Adjust the number of steps and the reward timing for the learner, then save those settings as that user's profile. Plan on about 30 minutes. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
