Bolbol's Diaries - Educational Pack & Books for Kids in Arabic
Time is one of the harder things to explain to a child, and one of the most useful sets of words to own in Arabic. Bolbol's four diaries move through the seasons and the days of the week, with a clock, a calendar and a 3D seasons tree to make the abstract something the child can hold.
Everything is written in clear, correct Modern Standard Arabic and designed by educators, so children hear and read the language properly from the start. The activity cards are perforated and wipe-clean, so each one can be used again and again.
This pack works with the Reading Pen (sold separately) — touch any page and hear the word read aloud by a native speaker.

How families use it
Put the calendar somewhere the child passes every morning and name the day in Arabic together — that daily repetition does more than any single lesson. The clock works alongside real routines: dinner time, bedtime, school time. Save the seasons tree for the week a season actually changes, so the words arrive with something the child can see outside.
Suitable for home learning, nurseries and Arabic classes. Ages 4 and up.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age is this pack for?
Ages 4 and up. The concepts of time and seasons suit slightly older children than our other packs, though younger siblings will still enjoy the puppets, stickers and songs.
Do I need the Reading Pen to use this pack?
No. Every item works on its own. The Reading Pen adds spoken audio on touch, and the QR codes give you the same audio through any phone at no extra cost.
Is the Arabic suitable for non-native families?
Yes. The audio books and QR songs let children hear correct pronunciation from a native speaker, so parents who don't speak Arabic can still read alongside their child.
Can the activity cards be reused?
Yes. The activity cards have a wipe-clean surface and are used with the included whiteboard pen, so they can be written on and wiped many times.
Is this suitable for a classroom?
Yes. The calendar and seasons tree work well as a permanent classroom display, and the activity and sticker sheets suit individual practice. For multiple sets, see our school and institution orders page.
