Kanji question.

I wanna start learning Kanji after I learn Katakana, but I don't know how to start or where to start. Can I have some tips on how to study Kanji and what to learn first?

Thank you for your time!

    You can start from learning One to Ten in Kanji. That is what most people learn at the beginning. If you can also learn how those kanji came from, it can also help your understanding and gain your interest.

    These were my first kanjis. They are really easy, easy to memorize (: You can search them here: jisho.org it is a really good japanese and kanji dictionary (:
    I started searching the kanjis and now I know so many kanjis :D I thought too that it would be difficult, and it is... but pretty fun too!!! 頑張って下さい~♪♫ねぇ?

    Here you can see all the kanji we learn in Japanese elementary school.
