      I tried printing those flash card on the Canon Pixma and Epson CX series printer, quality is not as good as printing on paper, but doable. I am too lazy to print on paper and laminate or cut the paper and paste it on those flash card.

        I use the traditional method. Print on normal paper and paste them on top of thicker paper.


        Personally, I feel laminating make the cards a bit too thick for flashing fast. just my preference.

          For flashing fast, I bough those finger glove, those tiny glove that cover individual finger. It provides enough friction to flash the card quickly.

            You know... a software-based flash card system which allows you to put the kid in front of the monitor and with adjustable flashing speed may not be such a bad idea afterall 🙂

              I use those too but still quite slow leh. especially if I need to flip the cards. A5 ones still okay. A4 cards I definetly take longer.


              Chief, if I am not wrong the softares don’t go less than 1 sec per card…

                But... but... movies go at 25 frames per second, which means each frame takes 1/25 second. If I can watch movies on my computer, why can't I flash faster than 1 sec per card?? :lol:

                Maybe we should make movies of flash cards and simply play them on TV. No need for computers. New product idea!

                    Those powerpoint type, cannot use their timer, too slow, like 1 sec per flip. I manually click my mouse to make them flip faster :lol:

                        Think you can start flashing pictures to them at super high speed so that their brain is tuned to it. As for words, I usually use large word on those B5 type paper.
