    Abstract: A new and improved product designed to enhance the lives of teachers and adults in their attempts to teach handicapped individuals. The present invention will serve to greatly enhance teachers and adults who are involved in teaching handicapped individuals by assisting them in locating visual pictures during activities at home or at school. The present invention would be attached to a belt, which would be strapped around a user's waist.
