What is Fun Words: Animals 4 about?
Fun Words: Animals 4 is an interactive word book for children aged 4 to 9 in which they discover even more animals from around the world and learn their names in English, in Arabic, or in both.
The fourth and last of the Fun Words animal books, it brings a new group of creatures. The cover shows a shaggy orange orangutan, a grey squirrel sitting up on its back legs, a big spotted cat mid-stride, a slender brown animal with a white chest, and a small round brown animal with a big dark nose. Some will be new to many children, which is part of the fun.
Children choose English, Arabic or both. For each animal they listen to how its name is pronounced, then use the microphone to record themselves, play it back and compare. Listening and saying a word several times is how young children learn new words in any language.
By the fourth book, children who have followed the series will know dozens of animal names, and they can test themselves against the earlier books too. For children learning Arabic, the language of the Qur'an, it keeps building vocabulary in small, easy steps.
Parents can make a game of it: point to an animal on the screen and see who can say its name first, in English or in Arabic. Fun Words is a Miraj original.
