Most children will also benefit from the Vocabulary Enhancement Card, since vocabulary learning is a lifelong endeavor. Children (and adults!) who have a hoarse or raspy voice would benefit from the Care of the Voice Card. And children who are having trouble with mild to moderate "stuttering", such as hesitations, blocks, repeating whole words or parts of words, would benefit from the Fluency Enhancement Card.
