How to Use the
Tuttle MORE Japanese for Kids Flash Cards
Introduction

This bitesized introduction to the Japanese language is ideally suited for children, and older learners, who want to quickly grasp the basics of Japanese vocabulary and pronunciation.
The audio
Using the Flash Cards Creatively
Since young children are still learning to read their own language it is generally not a good idea to have them try to learn another language by reading it. Rather, they should hear and use the new words many times in meaningful contexts, such as listening to the audio
• At first you may want to hold the flash cards for your child or students, and turn them one at a time, while listening to the audio
• Once the child is familiar with the words in that topic, have a little fun with them before moving on. For example you might lay the flash cards out on the floor or table, and have the child pick up one card at a time while you say the word (or play the audio
• As the child gains familiarity with them you may begin drilling the flash cards. Show the child a flash card, and let him or her say the word in Japanese. If he or she cannot remember the word, say it and put the card in a pile of flash cards to review later. If the child can say it put the card in a separate pile of flash cards that the child has mastered. Then go back
