Random question but does anyone know of a Japanese thesaurus (physical book preferably) either for primary/ elementary school age or for learners?
I have kids dictionaries, Kanji dictionaries and grammar dictionaries but was curious about a thesaurus since it may help me work out nuances and alternative vocabulary.
I don’t know any specifically, but lots show up when I search Cdjapan for 類語辞典. Interestingly most of them seem to be themed, rather than being an all-purpose thesaurus
It’s not exactly a thesaurus, but I think it fits the spirit of what you’re looking for
If you zoom in on the image you can see the flash cards are synonym cards
edit: Oh the same company has this
Oh, I have the new rainbow children’s dictionary and I like it! So other stuff by the same company is probably good too.
I hear the sound of my wallet crying… (those look great)
自分ののぞみどおりになって is an interesting qualifier to add to their definitions of うれしい and 楽しい…
Awesome, thanks folks 
I didn’t think about searching on CD Japan for them.

That one looks pretty good and just what I was looking for.
Mine will be after I place my next order
