What is the Flashcard Generator?

The Flashcard Generator makes free printable Chinese flashcards from any list of characters or words. Each card shows the character with an illustration, and you can add pinyin and the English meaning. Pick your words, choose the layout, and download a print-ready PDF — no account needed.

At home

Print your child's current characters and review a few each day. The illustrations help younger kids connect the character to its meaning before they can read.

In the classroom

Print a set per table for matching games, flash-and-say drills, or a word wall. Cut along the guides for ready-to-use cards.
