Yes, flashcards are monotonous and can be boring. But, I find for the best way to remember things, repetition is best. That is how I learned to spell, multiplication and division tables, muscles and bones of the body. Through repetition and memorization. We have some of the Hot Dot things shown below. My kids seem to like them, but I find them kind of expensive and not necessary to have such fancy flashcards. I did find a website that I love, and it is FREE, braineos. I did the ones for the Periodic Table, and even today at age 43, I only got a couple wrong. I still remember them after all these years, and no I am not a Chemist. Repetition works even if others don't like it or want to use it.

Flash cards are definitely the bet way to remember certain facts. Glad you found some that you liked.
I can't wait to see how the kids like it.
Great website! Thanks :)
