These cards practice answering who, what, and where questions from a picture — a core early language skill. Tap any card to open the full player — every card speaks its word out loud.
The level dial rewrites every card live — the same picture grows with your child from single words to full sentences. Here’s card one:
Parent mode picks five words for today — Grandma, under, apple, baby, tree — so a session can be two minutes on the couch, not a curriculum. Every card comes with a plain-language prompt like this one:
“Play the question and look at the picture together: “Who is cooking?” Start with one word (“Grandma”) and build up to a whole sentence: “Grandma is cooking soup on the stove.””
Working on this in speech sessions? The player also has a clinician side: draw on any card, jot a note, and use record-and-playback for listen-then-say practice. See the SLP tour →
Wh- questions are the who, what, where, when, and why questions children learn to answer in everyday conversation. This free deck practices who, what, and where with 20 picture scenes — each card plays its question out loud and your child answers from the picture.
Open a card, let it ask the question out loud, and look at the picture together. Start with a one-word answer, then use the level dial to build the same answer into a phrase and a full sentence. Each card includes a plain-language parent prompt that tells you exactly what to say.

No. Little Words is a practice tool for home and for sessions. If you have concerns about your child’s speech, a licensed speech-language pathologist can evaluate and guide you — these cards are a way to practice between conversations, not a diagnosis or a treatment plan.
