My pen friend

This is a really nifty product that I believe was developed in Britain. I use it to label things. It uses special labels to do its work and here is how it operates.

It is shaped like a pen. There are buttons that you can use to record a few words to create a label. You place the pen friend on the special label and press record. You record what you wish to and then stick the label on your desired box or package. Later you can come back to read it by again placing the pen friend on the label and pressing play. Voila! You hear your voice telling you what you previously recorded.

The pen friend is extremely affordable but I hasten to add that there are other products out there on the market that are very similar in function. You can check out these at www.independentlivingaids.com or at www.maxiaids.com.

I’m Donna J. Jodhan, your friendly accessibility advocate, wishing you a terrific day and urging you to go out there and tell others about this nifty gadget.
