About this resource
This Roost Original was created to support children as they begin to understand and respond to common ‘Wh’ questions during everyday conversation.
The cards introduce Who, What, Where, and Why questions in a clear, predictable format, helping children practise listening, thinking, and responding without overwhelming language or visuals.
This resource is often used alongside play, books, or daily routines, allowing adults to model questions naturally and adjust support based on the child’s level of understanding.
Suggested age range
3.5–7 years
Designed to support early questioning, reasoning, and conversational thinking.
Why:
- Younger children may need heavy modelling
- Older children benefit from flexible reasoning

Why this resource works
‘Wh’ questions can be challenging for children, particularly when language demands are high or questions are asked too quickly.
This resource is designed to:
- Introduce one question type at a time
- Support processing through repetition and consistency
- Encourage thinking and conversation, not testing
- Be used alongside meaningful contexts like play or stories
The goal is shared understanding, not correct answers.
How it’s used
- During play, book sharing, or everyday routines
- Supporting early language and reasoning skills
- One-on-one or in small groups
- Repeated often, with modelling and support
There is no single correct way to use this resource. It is designed to adapt to your child.
Format and access
- Digital download sent after purchase
- PDF files
- Print at home or professionally
- Reusable and durable when laminated
No physical items will be shipped.
