Kathy,

I bookmarked the Kaufman kit believe it or not over a year ago!

I was surprised at the expense, however it was wonderfully concrete and I

thought it is teaching approximations and beginning speech for a child with

apraxic issues, and instructs. I hestitated because of the cost, and still

am interested. Finally I find somebody else who is using it! ;-)

Is it worth it in your mind? I really think Ize could talk more if we did

this approach where we make the word as easily pronouncable as possible to

start and build up.
