What is Fun Words: Vehicles about?
Fun Words: Vehicles is an interactive word book for children aged 4 to 9 in which they discover vehicles from around the world and learn their names in English, in Arabic, or in both.
The cover shows ways to travel on land, in the air and beyond: a yellow bus, a red car, an aeroplane and a space rocket. Many children love anything with wheels or wings, and these are the vehicles they see on the road, in the sky and in their favourite books.
Children choose English, Arabic or both. For each vehicle they listen to how its name is pronounced, then use the microphone to record themselves saying it, play it back and compare. It is a simple loop, listen, say and check, that turns new words into words a child can use.
Vehicles are everywhere, so children can practise their new words on every journey: naming the bus at the stop, the car in the street or the plane overhead. For children learning Arabic, the language of the Qur'an, it is a fun way to build vocabulary a little at a time.
Parents can play a travel game: on the way to school or the shops, take turns spotting a vehicle and saying its name in English and in Arabic. Fun Words is a Miraj original.
