The KSPTK is a systematic treatment program that trains children to simplify word pronunciation patterns, making it easier for them to communicate. Utilization of this kit also allows the clinician to introduce more complex phoneme patterns as the child's ability improves, thus maintaining the child's ability to speak at his of her maximum level. The KSPTK picture stimuli are appropriate to use with children ages 2-6 and can be used with anyone who is having difficulty with articulatory skills in general, with the exception of children with oralmotor weakness or dysarthria.
