Instruments using KPSP questionnaires were adjusted to the age of the respondent. Data analysis used the Wilcoxon test with = 0.05. Results: If the p-value is 0.16, then flashcards affect improving language and speech development in children, doubtful development increases to be appropriate after stimulation with flashcards.
