Learn Japanese with the Laos Flag Coloring Page
Combine geography with language learning! Our coloring sheets, known as “Nurie” in Japan, are a popular educational tool used in Japanese schools and homes to help children develop motor skills and character recognition.
Japanese Language Focus: Katakana
In Japanese, foreign country names are written using a script called Katakana. On this sheet, you can see “ラオス” (Raosu), which is the Katakana for Laos.
- ラ (Ra): The first character.
- オ (O): The second character.
- ス (Su): The final character.
What is “Nurie”?
“Nurie” (塗り絵) is the Japanese word for coloring. In Japanese culture, Nurie is not just a pastime but a form of artistic education that emphasizes attention to detail and patience. This sheet follows the standard Japanese educational layout, featuring a reference image and clear labels to help learners associate visual images with written language.
Practice Tip
Try tracing the hollow Katakana characters “ラオス” before coloring them in. This is a great way to start memorizing the strokes while having fun with the flag of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic!
