Here is a video of me teaching the parts of the violin to little Colin when he was only two.
It might take a minute or two to download so be patient.

Parts of the Violin Large Teacher Bits
Parts of the Bow Large Teacher Bits
Parts of the Violin Memory Game for NON-readers
Parts of the Violin Study Cards
Parts of the Violin Go Fish
***************************
Just different forms of the same thing.
You don't need them all unless you are a teacher.
The large 8 1/2" x 11" bits are for the first introduction to the violin.
You show the student the picture
(with one 'bit' of information on it,
and give them a fact about it.
The facts can change each time you show them.
They are on a separate page.
Next, you would use the study cards.
The student can carry them around with them and
look at them now and then to learn the name.
Finally, the games.
Go Fish would be for readers.
Memory for either readers or non-readers.
Take it slowly.
Build a firm foundation.
***************************
This part of the "set-up" for playing violin shouldn't be rushed.
I realize the student wants to get that violin up and running,
but adding games can slow it down
until their thinking has absorbed the new ideas.
Learning the parts of the violin or cello can be fun.
It also makes it nice not to have to say,
"can you put your pinkie on that thingamagig
over there at the bottom of the stick." It's a language.
Give them the gift.
