Description: A simple "put in" game! This is a fun and engaging deck for young children who have difficulty with motor-planning and sequencing the early consonants (/m,n,p,b,t,d,w,h/) and syllable sequences or who are highly unintelligible and have difficulty producing a variety of recognizable words. After the child says their target words, they can move the coins to the piggy bank, one by one, with a rewarding “DING” upon dropping them in! The deck is AMUSING and EASY for even your youngest kiddos to use in speech teletherapy...simple for parents to try out at home, as well! Attempting to work on speech for this population is HARD work...that's why we have to keep our therapy disguised as games and 'play' activities that are just like their favorite toys! Pair the deck with a toy piggy bank and plastic coins?! The ‘vocabulary’ for treatment of Apraxia does not vary to a large degree -- and will not vary much -- as there are a finite number of possible words with the specific syllable shapes and early consonants that are needed to effectively and systematically teach motor-planning and sequencing of speech so that children can gain functional verbal language. This is a comprehensive deck of cards that includes 200 icons (in sets of 10) for each Syllable Shape: V, VV, VCVCV, CV1CV2, VC, CV(x30 words), CVC Synthesis: /h, w, p, b, t, d, m, n/, C1V1C2V2, Pivot Syllables -dle, -dy, -ny (with visual icons for "dough," the letter "D," and a "knee" to help the child mark that syllable!)
