Welcome to Tar Heel Gameplay, a collection of free, easy-to-play, and accessible games. Each game is speech enabled and may be accessed using multiple interfaces, including touch screens and 1 to 3 switches.
You may create your own games using videos from the huge collection at YouTube.
It's based on creating switch stop/starts in YouTube videos, and you can also set it up with your own videos by cutting and pasting the link. You just don't want to save those home videos to the GamePlay website where everyone searches.

Check out some of my favorites -
Disney Princess Medley - from one of my Bridge Camp buddies - A

Bringing UDL into the Mainstream
For the past several years, new teachers joining the Bartholomew (Ind.) Consolidated School Corporation have been encouraged to watch a video introducing the preferred method of teaching in the district. Rather than highlighting a single approach, however, the video is all about encouraging teachers to use varied ways and materials to present new information and to assess learning, be it aurally through talking iPads, visually through doodles on whiteboards, creatively through art projects and games, or by using old-fashioned pen and paper. That's because the preferred method of teaching in Bartholomew County is UDL, or Universal Design for Learning.
"Here you'll find a variety of guided activities with supporting tools to help enhance kids' playtime experiences. Each activity was created with specially selected Hasbro toys and games. The activities are available in both print and video form, and are categorized into 3 levels"
