Designed with vibrant illustrations by celebrated artists Ali Teo and John O'Reilly, this engaging set of flashcards offers a fun and interactive way for families to learn and practice te reo Māori together. Each of the 50 double-sided cards features the Māori word on one side and the English translation on the other, making it easy for learners to associate words with their meanings.

Moreover, the set includes helpful te reo phrases that can be used to ask and answer questions while playing with the flashcards, promoting not only vocabulary acquisition but also conversational skills. Stacey Morrison has also included her valuable tips and ideas for different activities and games, ensuring that learning remains joyful and captivating.

Whether you're a parent, a teacher, or a language enthusiast, these flashcards are suitable for everyone, from preschoolers to adults. They are an excellent way to encourage the entire whānau to speak Māori and participate in the preservation and celebration of the language.

The topics covered in this set are thoughtfully curated to include everyday vocabulary such as:

  • Whānau (family)
  • Emotions/Feelings
  • Clothing
  • Animals
  • Food and Drink

Packaged in a convenient card box for easy storage, this set of flashcards is a versatile and invaluable resource for anyone committed to learning and teaching te reo Māori.
