The Bjorem Speech® Lateral/Frontal Lisp Playing Cards are a FUNctional resource designed to support the generalization of the /s/ sound in final /ts/ word positions, especially for clients with lateral and frontal lisps.
This deck is a supplement to the Bjorem Speech® Lateralization Deck, using targeted strategies rooted in phonetic shaping and cognitive reframing to bring clarity and consistency to articulation therapy.
Key Features
These game-based activities are perfect for promoting motor learning principles and reinforcing the accurate production of /s/ in a way that feels engaging—not overwhelming.
Therapeutic Focus
Phonetic Shaping: Teaches correct /s/ placement using coarticulation (represented by the “flat tire” cue from the Lateralization Deck).
Cognitive Reframing: Helps children see the /s/ as a “new sound,” replacing the incorrect production (like the “snake” sound) with the corrected target through a fun, reframed lens.

Best For

Absolutely LOVE this product! I have quite a few lateral and interdental lisp kiddos on my caseload and they've all responded well to re-framing to "tick-tock" to "flat tire" sound cues. This deck is the perfect way to practice integrating the "flat tire" sound. I appreciate how the visual cue is included on each card throughout the deck. Whether we are playing Go-fish, Matching, etc. Students recognize the "flat tire!"

Mary, thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We are so glad to hear you are finding it useful in your therapy sessions.
Love everything about these cards except for the box they come in. I couldn’t get them out without tearing the box and now I need to find another way to store them.
I LOVE these cards & use them almost every single day! The only reason I am giving 4 stars is because the material they are made of makes them extremely hard to shuffle so they stick together.

Thank you for your feedback, Pia! We appreciate it!
Finding resources from Bjorem has been a life saver to my practice. I try to incorporate as much play as possible into articulation treatment and these cards are awesome! The students love the different games and it provides them some “buy-in” to repeat drill practice. The visuals are beautiful, colorful, and clear. Thank you!

Thank you so much for the kind words, Nicole. It really means so much to us!
Love these lateral lisp cards. Kids love them too. They love the pictures and ease of understanding what they need to do. Would love to see these for initial lateralization for S and sh as well. Wishing I could afford more of these products.

Thank you for the great review, Madison!
The lateral lisp cards are a really helpful way to target lateral lisps and I love how the cards have the /ts/ words on them to help facilitate the coarticulation.
My kids love to practice their flat tire sound in this fun game format! I also love that I can add GO FISH into practice for my kids who lateralize both S and SH!!
Thank you!
