My First Japanese Kanji Book

“It’s an illustrated picture book AND a workbook, all nicely hard-bound.” –PragmaticMom.com blog“Hazel and I began trying some out first with just regular colored pencils and I realized we were not getting the thickness of the lines correctly so I pulled out some calligraphy pens. Hazel loved this activity!! She wanted to do some more while I started making dinner. Again I love that Hazel gets to hear the correct pronunciation. I also showed her how to listen to the poems on her own if she wants to try some while I’m busy. This really excited her. She actually asked if we could try some lessons every day.” –Crafty Moms Share blog“There are 36 lessons in this book, which is enough to really keep your children learning. Most of the lessons are two pages long, so quite reasonable and not too intimidating.” –Castle View Academy blog
