First-words books
Vocabulary grows fastest when a word is paired with a clear picture and repeated. The My First Illustrated Arabic–English Dictionary (ages 5–8) and 1000 First STEM Words (ages 3–6) build words by topic, while write-and-wipe books add writing practice.
Write and wipe, ages 3 to 5
- Learn Arabic Letters: letter shapes, traced and wiped as many times as needed.
- Learn Numbers in Arabic: recognising and writing numbers.
- Learn Arabic Words: first words, read and written.
Hearing the words
The Caillou talking pen (ages 3–6) reads words aloud in English and Arabic, which helps when a parent is less sure of the pronunciation in one of the two languages.
