By simulating real-world conversations, roleplays help prepare students for English conversations in their daily lives.  EnglishSauce Roleplay cards are different from traditional roleplays that may not be engaging or suitable for younger learners. Instead of topics like airports, hotels, and grocery shopping, our cards focus on subjects that kids love to talk about, such as family, vacations, hobbies, and food!!
