Created by Certified Mahjong Instructor and mother of five, Sarah Nazarian, this simplified card helps beginners and kids gain confidence and joy in playing the game.\n\nEach Bear Cub Card includes only a concise selection of hands—about one-third the number found on the standard nmjl card—making it easier to focus and reducing the overwhelm that often comes with learning.\n\nEvery detail has been refined with beginners in mind: Beginner-friendly sections only — challenging categories from the League card have been removed.\n\nSimple groupings — most hands use 3–4 tile groupings, making it easy to call for Jokers and avoid tricky singles and pairs.\n\nMinimal singles — only three hands include singles, and those tiles are clearly outlined with boxes so you won’t mistakenly call for them.\n\nHelpful symbols — each line includes an icon, making it easy to track your chosen hand and clearly communicate your winning line to others. This is an especially helpful tool for beginners!\n\nNo soaps or zeros — all hands use the white dragon tile instead, simplifying gameplay for new learners.\n\nExposed hands only — eliminating the frustration of concealed hands while you’re still building skills.\n\nEasy pivoting — hands are intentionally designed to make switching between lines simple, boosting early success and confidence.\n\nThe Bear Cub Card also includes a four-level learning system that introduces mahjong step by step. This guided approach builds understanding and skill in a fun, approachable way—helping beginners feel capable, confident, and ready to call “Mahjong!”","brand":"Mama Bear Mahjong","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44393578102883,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0673\/8824\/4067\/files\/d799e0e220061c3107b5ce9e5968b0d7ea9c654a00fd5ee0b05130290c7511d8.jpg?v=1784761920","url":"https:\/\/californiamahjonghouse.com\/products\/the-bear-cub-card-mahjong-for-kids-and-beginners","provider":"California Mahjong House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
