I am not specifically teaching BOI to my daughter - I have no flashcards, but occassionally I will show her a session on Little Reader just for interest sake and to see what she enjoys. Mostly I teach encyclopaedic knowledge while out and about - she knows an enormous amount of fruits and vegetables for the fruit store where she can touch and feel them as well as see them, she's had a whole lesson on tadpoles growing into frogs because we have a whole lot of tadpoles in our swimming pool (long story and the pool is about to get cleaned), she's learnt about peacocks from our resident garden peacock and she's been told about the water cycle when it rains (and even when we pull the plug out the bath) I do need to do some learning myself on some subjects as I sometimes run out of things to tell her or don't know the answers I think she might like to know.
I'm not sure I will ever do flashcards for this knowledge as they are just too time consuming, but it is easier with Little Reader. I also show her pictures in real encyclopaedias (they are ancient ones from when I was a child, but they work for most subjects except things like recent presidents or actors)
