About Hiragana Katakana Karuta
Play this “Hiragana Katakana Karuta” with your children who have just begun learning hiragana and katakana, the Japanese cursive syllabary.
Here is the Japanese karuta, using 46 hiraganas and 46 karutas with illustrations that are familiar with you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
◆How to play this app◆
Listen to the words in Japanese, especially the last hiragana and katakana sound. Then find and touch the card that you’ve listened to.
Each of the card shows hiragana and katakana clearly so that you can find it easily.
The Japanese words you hear are about something familiar with you, and the cards you touch describe their illustrations.
The hiragana and katakana is read randomly. Complete all of the 46 cards each section as soon as you can.
This app is for children before entering elementary schools and for those who has just begun learning Japanese. Being able to read hiragana and katakana enables you to communicate basically in Japanese, and it must be the basis of learning in Japanese.
This app lets your children recognise how to read hiragana and katakana as well as its shapes, operating and playing it by themselves.
Try it with your lovely children together.
