Nazorigaki: Kana Tracing

About

First hiragana, learned by tracing — with instant grading kids can understand. Made for ages 4-7 getting ready for school, and great for anyone starting Japanese. Every character and every feature is free. ■ Trace and get a 100-point score Trace over a light-gray model and get scored on the spot: stroke count (30) + shape (50) + stroke order and direction (20). Writing strokes backwards caps the score, so correct habits form before bad ones do. ■ See exactly where it drifted Deviations from the model are drawn in warm orange right on the child's strokes — easy to look at together and say “this is where it bent”. ■ All 150 kana 46 hiragana, 25 voiced and semi-voiced marks, 33 contracted sounds, and 46 katakana, each with a stroke-order animation (normal / slow). ■ A 5-minute daily plan Five new characters plus three reviews, picked automatically each day. Finish for a stamp; keep going for streaks and badges. ■ A report for parents Mastery by row, the five weakest characters, and weekly practice counts at a glance. ■ Built for children - Child-facing screens use hiragana only - Settings and external links sit behind a parental gate (a multiplication quiz) - No account; records stay on the device ■ About ads A small banner appears at the bottom. A one-time “Remove Ads” purchase ($0.99, no auto-renewal) hides it forever. No feature limits either way, and no subscriptions. Five minutes today, and a proud “I wrote it!” tomorrow.
