I bought a set of spanish flash cards once but didn't find it was worth the money. I recently started making my own. This is much cheaper and more practical for my learning. I can make up cards based on what I am currently learning. I find that making a few dozen cards a week is enough. Then every morning I take 5 or 6 with me and whenever I have a minute or 2 I will just pull one out and look at it. Sometimes in line at the store or the bank. If I'm put on hold on the phone. When I get in my car, before I go anywhere I just look at one. I've had a few looks when I pull one out at the bank or grocery store, but it works. I only use them for nouns or verbs, I don't put sentences on them. You would be amazed at how many minutes we have throughout the day that are wasted, so we might as well get a little Spanish learning in there.
I tried making them with paper but didn't work as well so I went to an office supply store and just bought plain card stock and cut them up into small cards.
Let me know if you have any other suggestions for using flash cards or if you have found some that you have purchased that have been helpful.
buena suerte
