  1. Jessica W. (verified owner) –

    As always, this is another fabulous resource! I was struggling to find a good way to explain deaffrication to the little ones and this is perfect. It includes an easy-to-understand story and I love how it breaks things down into “exploding sounds” vs. “windy sounds”.

  2. Jayden F. (verified owner) –

    This resource is awesome! I love using the minimal pairs approach for students with phonological disorders and this resource is so helpful in carrying out this approach! 🙂

  3. Abbey W. (verified owner) –

    Another incredible resource! Being able to have minimal pairs ready to go is so handy! The pictures and the “exploding vs windy sound” story are so meaningful and resonate with so many kids – which really helps therapy click and stick!

  4. Alison R. (verified owner) –

    Rebecca has done it again! These resources for minimal pairs are so incredibly effective with my students. Using the metaphors for windy/exploding sounds helped one of my students finally “get it”. Thank you for producing such high quality, engaging materials.

  5. Sadie H. (verified owner) –

    I use these minimal pair toolkits constantly! My students respond so well to the exploding/windy sound cues in the deaffrication toolkit!

  6. Leah O. (verified owner) –

    Really like the inclusion of the “social” story! I have several of these toolkits & use them often!

  7. Dana B. (verified owner) –

    I love all of these minimal pair toolkits! The story was super helpful for some of my students and the minimal pairs cards are great as per usual!

  8. Kelsi B. (verified owner) –

    Love this resource! My students really benefited from the contrast between windy and exploding sounds.
