Cards follow the exact book or lesson you upload
Questions cover characters, setting, problem, and order of events
Short sessions of five to ten cards fit a kindergarten attention span
Free plan includes 3 generations per month with browser study

Generate the full set

Built from your book

Upload a PDF, photo of a page, or typed notes and get cards that match the exact story your class is reading.

Short, one-idea cards

Each card asks one simple question about a character, place, or event, which suits children who are still building reading skills.

Spaced repetition

Cards you find tricky come back sooner, so the story details stick over several days of short practice.

How it works

Upload the story

Add a PDF, slides, notes, or a photo of the pages. Text recognition reads photos too.

Generate your cards

The AI pulls out characters, setting, problem, and order of events as flashcards.

Practice a few minutes a day

Study in the browser on the free plan, or use spaced repetition with Plus to review what is due.

A good story card is short: one question, one answer, and often a word the child can point to in the picture. Asking who the main character is, where the story takes place, or what happened first helps children retell a story in their own words.

Start with the book your child already knows. Upload it, keep the sessions brief, and let the cards come back when a detail is harder to remember.

Frequently asked questions

What should a kindergarten story flashcard ask?

Keep each card to one idea, such as a character's name, the place where the story happens, or what happened first. Short questions with a clear picture cue work best for five- and six-year-olds.

How many story flashcards should a kindergartner study at once?

Around five to ten cards per session is a good range for most young learners. Short daily practice tends to work better than one long sitting.

Can I print the flashcards for class?

Printing needs an export, and PDF export is included with Plus at $99.90/year or $9.99/month. The free plan lets you study in the browser and includes 3 generations per month.
