お風呂に入って!

It doesn't matter if you're 2 or 22, tub markers make learning fun.

Last year, I bought some Crayola BathTub Markers.

A solid way to spend $6, if you ask me.  Having a little cup of tub markers in the shower really helps spark some Japanese practice and use.

Why tub markers? Well, because they’re fun!  C’mon, when else can you pick up something colorful and draw all over the walls with it?  I’m for anything that makes learning fun.

←This is what my family’s shower looked like before the JLPT 4 in 2008.  (If you click on the photo, it’s bigger and you can read my beginner’s Japanese!)

Swing by your favorite craft store (or Target or Wal-Mart, if you must…) and pick up a box!  Even if you don’t end up practicing Japanese, you’ll still have fun drawing dirty pictures and writing obscenities and insults for your fellow shower-ers to find.

  1. That’s funny and a good idea, since people don’t have anything to do when showering.
