Using Reading Flashcards can be very beneficial to the learning progress of your child.
Constant repetition using the card will help them remember the spelling, meaning and even pronunciation, but what works the most is interacting with your child and talking to them about it.

Read and Communicate with your Child!
In a nutshell, parents should always be speaking and reading with their children – promoting critical thinking. Flashcards give a lot of information, but only work if you also interact with your child. Ask questions, know your child’s thoughts and often ask them what they think. This will help your child get into the habit of thinking about connections between different things, which promotes thinking beyond the information given and developing more sophisticated inferences.
Remember all you need to do is talk and read with your child daily.
Tip: Best time to do this? 20-30 mins on bedtime tuck ins!
