What is Fun Words: Birds 2 about?
Fun Words: Birds 2 is an interactive word book for children aged 4 to 9 in which they discover more birds from around the world and learn their names in English, in Arabic, or in both.
It follows Fun Words: Birds with a new flock. The cover shows a peacock with its tail fanned out, a pelican with its huge orange beak, an ostrich racing along on its long legs, a little yellow duckling and a robin with its red breast. They are birds of every shape and size, from one that cannot fly at all to one that carries its dinner in its beak.
Children choose English, Arabic or both. For each bird they listen to how its name is pronounced, then use the microphone to record themselves saying it, play it back and compare. Children can take their time, try again and hear themselves improve.
Birds this different from each other give parents plenty to talk about: which is biggest, which is most colourful, which ones live near us. For children learning Arabic, the language of the Qur'an, each name adds to the words they know and can use.
Parents can play alongside and take turns with the microphone, or pick a bird and ask their child to say its name in both languages. Fun Words is a Miraj original.
