こんばんは、 みなさん。
ｋｋさんのブログに ビデオが あります。 わたしは ビデオを みました。
After watching the video, I got interested in finding other Japanese children’s books and songs on YouTube. One thing lead to another, and I eventually found a pretty useful website that I thought I might share: http://www.iknow.co.jp/
The page has a somewhat addictive flash card applet to help people learn Japanese vocabulary. (It also has ひらがなと カタカナ if you're still a little rusty on those.) For each vocab word, there is an associated sentence. The sentence structures are generally much more complicated that I understand, but sometimes there are simple sentence which are really exciting. Either way, there is an English translation.
The vocab words are a mix of stuff we do and do not know, and all the verbs are in what I think is dictionary form. But I'm hoping that getting a little exposure to the vocab now will make learning the words easier later.
I'm particularly interested in one of the features of the website that allows users to create their own lists of vocab. When I have the time, I think I might try to make lists for our vocab words.
Anyway, I think it's definitely worth checking out if you have the time.
じゃあ、また。

iknowのサイトはすごいですね。
Interesting perspective on the blogs. I didn't think of them as being "unique", but that's a good idea.
