My daughter is five and she is struggling with her language skills. There are about 5 sounds that she just can’t say. It is worry us, so we’ve made an appointment with our family doctor to get a referral for a speech therapist.
Do your children have any speech delays?
When I had the opportunity to review amazing toys and games from Super Duper Publications that were fun but also helpful for children with language development, I was so happy. Plus, my daughter LOVES games. She pulls down a game from our newly organized game closet daily for us to play with her.
The new games we received from Super Duper Publications will be nicely wrapped under our tree on Christmas Eve. I cannot wait to see her face when she opens them!

The vocabulary addresses six common categories (Animals, Food, Clothing, Home, School, and Transportation), with 24 items per category.

Each sound has specific question cards for initial, medial and final positions in single words.
9. 500 Prefixes, Suffixes and Stems Super Fun Deck • Grades 4+
