How the words are chosen
One picture, doing the work alone.
Every word gets a single illustration, and it has to communicate the word with no caption and nothing outside the card to lean on. That is the test a new word passes before it ships: does the picture land with a tired parent, on its own? If not, the word comes out and something more concrete takes its place.
You pick your child’s stage, and it stays where you put it: First Words for ages 0–2, Growing Words for 2–3, Word Builder for 3–5. Each stage has its own 25 free words, so a ten-month-old and a four-year-old don’t get the same cards. The phrases library is the step after naming: from “milk” to “I want milk.” Want them off the screen? The same 75 free words are free printable flashcards.
