Learn by Playing! Recommended Games with a Kanji Theme

A person from the melodic hardcore boom generation who loves music, photography, and eating. I’ve been going to live houses for over 20 years. I’m at the age where summer festivals are starting to feel tough physically. I sometimes try shooting live photos and videos for MVs. I’m not great at English, so I often listen to straightforward Japanese rock that hits directly, but if someone recommends something, I’ll listen to anything—Western or Japanese—broadly and casually. I like cooking while listening to music; it’s a nice way to relieve stress.

There are adults who aren’t good with kanji, or who feel like they know them but can’t quite recall them, right?

Once you develop even a slight aversion, the hurdle gets higher, so I’d love for people to learn in a fun way.

How about turning it into a game to learn kanji—getting hands-on with kanji while you play?

We introduce various kanji games, from free apps to board and card games.

Adults can play too, so why not try them with your children?

Kanji Quiz for First Graders

Recommended for those who are good at kanji! Let me introduce an idea for a quiz using the kanji learned in first grade.

When you think of quizzes, there are all kinds of categories, right? This time, let’s try a quiz that uses kanji.

Since the questions use kanji learned in first grade, it should be easy to jump in.

For example, the characters “七夕” are shown, and the question asks, “How do you read this?” Of course, there are hints, so if you don’t know the answer, try thinking it through using the hints.

Dictation Rock-Paper-Scissors

Kanji practice meets rock-paper-scissors! Try a one-on-one showdown.

First, the two players decide which kanji they’ll write.

Once decided, they play rock-paper-scissors, and the winner writes one stroke of the chosen kanji.

Repeat rock-paper-scissors like this: each time you win, you add another stroke, and the person who completes the kanji faster wins.

Start with kanji that have fewer strokes, and once you’re used to it, try more complex kanji with many strokes! Even children who find memorizing kanji difficult can enjoy practicing while having fun.
