Many parents must have heard of Children Learning Cards. It can help train children's sensory integration, brain neuroscience, memory training, and so on. And the most famous of children learning cards must be educational flash cards.

So what are Kids Educational Flash Cards? How to use them to maximize their effects? Today's blog is to make this topic clear to you.

What is a flash card?

Flash card is a very common learning tool in American classes. It has been proved to be a good method in the field of teaching, which can help improve students' memory and understanding of concepts.

Flash cards apply to a wide range of ages. They can be used as parent-child games for young children in the enlightenment stage (Preschool Educational Flash Cards), auxiliary props for children to learn at home, and teaching aids to interact with children in a class to improve their learning ability.

Of course, it also applies to adults. If you want to take an exam, the design strategy and principle of the flash card can be used, which will get twice the result with half the effort.

Pay attention to strategy in the use of flash cards

First, it takes a long time to prepare.

The "trigger point" of the flash card needs to be triggered randomly. Instead of preparing a card for the child and handing it to the child, we can complete the whole process of active learning. At least dozens or hundreds of cards must be prepared first so that the child can have access to the things that need to be remembered to achieve a random, interesting, efficient learning effect. This is why the use of flash cards in classroom teaching is actually "in groups".

However, if children learn more independently and the application logic and purpose of flash cards are clear, children can be encouraged to DIY their word cards, that is, you can provide Educational Flash Cards Printing for children, which can well improve their interests in learning and strengthen the consolidation of children's learning effect.

Second, flash cards are just a tool. 

It pays attention to the use of strategies. We need to flexibly combine a variety of flash card teaching strategies. In the process of using flash cards, we can learn from the learning suggestions provided and do it with children by age and stage:

• Children younger than one-year-old: flash cards can be introduced or read by parents and children. Our mentality is to make flash cards as a way of parent-child reading. It is not very different from doing parent-child reading and reading pictures at home. Don't carry out flash card memory exercises or games for children, but more as family reading input and environmental training.

• Children aged 1-3: encourage the introduction of parent-child flash card games. The focus of this stage is the game-playing method of parent-child interaction because flash cards can help children enter words and words. They are a good tool for children to be curious about words. All kinds of parent-child games related to "words", "words" and "stories" can be done at this stage.

However, the focus of this stage is the sense of participation in parent-child interaction. The key is games and interactivity. There is no need to have too many expectations or requirements for answers or effects.

• Children over 3 years old: can play memory games with their children in combination with flash cards. It is also possible to add some small tests, such as asking children to look at positive words and say the meaning of words. If the child has zero foundation and has not played flash card parent-child games before, they can combine games aged 1-3 with games aged over 3.
