Abstract: A sound button devices, systems, and methods for sound buttons capable of emitting sound using less power, greater sound transmissibility, and/or greater resistance to damage and that allow for training both non-humans and humans to communicate more effectively than previously possible In typical embodiments, the sound button may comprise a shell, a switch operably connected to a printed circuit board (“PCB”), a button cap assembly operably coupled to the shell, the button cap assembly comprising a button cap having at least one recess, the at least one recess having a hole; and a speaker facing toward the button cap, where, when a force is applied to the button cap, the button cap and the speaker move together to actuate the switch, thereby causing the speaker to emit a sound.
