The best age to start the word card is 3-5 months old, the earlier the better/easier. At this age, the child had yet to develop any strong preference yet... so they can absorb everything... easier and faster.
If the word card is introduce after the child has learn the alphabets, it is very difficult to stimulate their right brain to capture the image of the word. The children will tend to read each alphabets, which is the left-brain function.
