About
Japan Picture Book for Kids is a picture-dictionary app for toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2+). Children tap realistic illustrations to hear each word read aloud — in English or Japanese — while exploring Japan, Japanese words, and everyday culture. It looks and feels like a real printed picture encyclopedia. ■ 1,250 words across 46 categories Animals, dinosaurs, vehicles, food, fruits, vegetables, sushi, fish, insects, flowers, space, musical instruments, hiragana, katakana, the alphabet, and much more. From everyday favorites to encyclopedia-worthy deep-sea creatures, there is always something new to discover. ■ Simple enough for little hands Tap a picture and hear its name — no menus, no tricky controls, nothing to get lost in. The あ/A button switches between Japanese and English at any time, making the app a gentle first introduction to Japanese for English-speaking families, or to English for Japanese-speaking families. ■ Packed with playful ways to learn - "Which one?" quiz: listen to a word, then find and tap it on the page. Wrong answers bring friendly hints — no penalties, ever - "What's that sound?" quiz: guess what makes the sound you hear, building listening skills - Sounds mode: tap to hear lifelike animal calls and vehicle sounds - Recording mode: listen to the example, then record your own voice and feel the "I said it!" moment - Voice mode: the book reads itself back in your child's own recorded voice - Pinch to zoom: enlarge any picture and study every little detail ■ Designed with parents in mind - No ads, ever - Recordings are stored only on the device and are never uploaded (optional iCloud backup can be turned on in settings) - Purchases and settings sit behind a parental gate, safe from curious taps - Works fully offline after download — perfect for flights and trips - Child profiles keep each sibling's recordings and progress separate ■ A picture book that keeps growing New words and categories are added through weekly and monthly updates — always at no extra cost. The book your child opens today keeps growing along with them. ■ Try 4 categories (122 words) for free Animals, vehicles, food, and hiragana are free to explore. To unlock everything, choose the plan that suits your family: a one-time Lifetime purchase that is yours forever, or a Monthly subscription. For first words, for a head start with a second language, for quiet quality time together — a gentle picture book the whole family will enjoy opening every day.
