Hi everyone!

Previously I introduced a game called “Fukuwarai” in my last blog. Has anyone tried it?
Today, I want to introduce another useful game that you can play with your friend.
I am sure that many of you have played this game with cards. It is a language version of “Concentration” (Shinkei suijaku). This is also known as memory, in which all of the cards are laid face down on a surface and two cards are flipped face up over each turn. The object of the game is to turn over pairs of matching cards.

If you have the chance to play this game with your classmates, make your own cards and try with Japanese. To remember Katakana and Hiragana, for example, you can make cards with Hiragana and Katakana which can be matched together. You can also play this game to memorize vocabulary – you can write matched words in English and Japanese.
This game is actually quite fun and can help you remember character/words in a fun and easy way!

Another good thing is that you can start with small number of cards, and then you can add more and more cards later on. So why not make your own cards and play with your friends!

See you next week!
