Guest guest Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 HI. I was wondering how many people have used these with their kids. My sons SLP is using them now and they seem to help (except when he won't focus). I have posted looking to buy used ones but with no luck. Do people think they are helpful? If so, I'm going to order them anyway. We don't need to eat this month. Ha Ha Just kidding. Thanks for your input. Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of times I make it a game and make it silly and funny. Sometimes instead of having say the single words I will try to get him to say a phrase. For example " girl eating food " which he is getting pretty good at. My friend, his ex-special instruction therapist says its time to introduce him to more complete sentances....for example " the girl is eating the food " ....I'm like....OMG I can't even imagine!!! Sorry I went off on tangent. I just wanted to say I like the cards and I have found they are useful for many purposes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2003 Report Share Posted October 16, 2003 Hey there, I used the Kaufman cards with my son and they were so useful. I paid about $160 but well worth it. It helped me sound out the words for my son a little easier and we went thru the complete set in about 4 months. katedb2003 <madenbleyker@...> wrote:HI.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 hithe website www.nss-nrs.com has sign & say cards. they are a little cheaper than the kaufman cards. my sons speech therapist recommended them over the kaufman ones because they have " real " pictures on them. i think that website sells both...check out the difference. i think both of them are great, i just personally like the sign & say cards better. marianne > > Does anyone know where I can buy these cards either used or at a > discounted price.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 Hi, I'm new here and have some questions. Do those of you with older global apraxic kids ( mine is 13) have any success's with the Kaufman apraxia cards ? Also, I am going to try the Pro-EFA with my daughter. How about success stories with older kids and using that product? Any other suggestions for me; she has autism and had therapy for almost 10 years, speech, OT and PT. She is in puberty and things seem to be regressing. What about help with school. How do you make them understand about global apraxia when they think your child has cognitive deficits when in actuality it's the apraxia................ sorry so many questions ! Thanks for your help !!!! Kathy H. Abby's Mom > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 When I bought mine I searched and searched eBay and such for a used set without any luck. I finally just had to save up our money and buy them at full price. I nearly choked over it but I didn't want to wait any longer.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2007 Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 My daughter's new therapist uses those cards and they're pretty cool. They have more pronunciation break downs per card than the Kaufman cards. The new slp was telling me they were from Kaufman but I don't they are.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 At the Autism Speaks a group called Goosie at Goosiecards.com - have cards you make yourself from your own photos for flash cards that are used to stimulate brain development, visually cue for activity, emotions etc. Not sure the price or if this is anywhere near Kaufman's cards but check em out and let us know. The cool thing is that parents create the words and concepts with photos that are known to a child such as " uses the potty " or " Daddy has dinner " . The reinforcement of family and friends looks very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 I spoke with my daugter's SLP today and said that I have tried to find the lowest price for the cards....boy they go from $199.00-$163.00 for the same box of cards. She said she would give me a big stack to work with our daughter. The sounds we are targeting now. My husband told me to stop searching for the lowest price and just buy the cards....but I am glad the slp is lending us the cards. I love boardmaker. We have lots of things labels here using boardmaker.....we even have a meal choice book using boardmaker. April....I love the idea of making cards you make yourself. I think I will have my daughter help me make some.....perhaps we can start with morning routine.

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 ( new here ) Are these cards all their cracked up to be?? If so, I'll buy some. Where is the cheapest place? My daughter has autism and dyspraxia and is older, are these appropriate for a young teen?

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2007 Report Share Posted October 11, 2007 actually yes they are, however there is a new workbook out, and it has the same pictures in it as the photo cards. I think there is more than one level. It is nice because they break words down and they are easy to use. The workbook is so far great. I think the workbook is $100 cheaper. ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 They did wonders for my daughter. They are very easy for a parent to figure out how to use them. It really helped us build up her articulation skills in an organized fashion. In addition, we worked with the cards for 2 (15 minute) sessions per day. So, my child received the 3 to 5 speech sessions per week by us using these cards at home and it made a tremendous difference.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 My son also uses the cards in therapy and his articulation has improved a lot. It is always wonderful to see him hit a word by visually looking at the card and knowing the word he once struggled with. Seeing him hit those words also helps me know he is making good progress with articulation. Check out Ebay if you want to buy some, it may be cheaper on there for a used kit.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 At the Kaufman seminar on Friday, I was fortunate enough to be the last person at the table (the line was very long and I almost got out of it a few times), and the guy offered me the display box for a heftily discounted cost-- since there were 3 missing. I jumped at the chance, and smiled at him and said " I'll take that deal, and have my SLP copy the missing 3, but you didn't hear me say that " and he laughed. bek ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
