Why sound + position?

A child who can say S at the start of sun may still drop it at the end of bus; so practice lists are built per position, the same way SLPs structure articulation work. Each deck here targets one sound in one position (or one language skill), so you always know exactly what you’re practicing.

Want the same words inside a game? Both of our speech games can run on any of these decks; and Buddy’s stories hide the same target words in every scene.
