Tales and Lessons – Educational Pack & Books for Kids in Arabic
Every one of these four stories carries a lesson, but none of them states it outright — that part comes from the conversation afterwards. The comprehension cards and puppets exist to start that conversation, in Arabic, in the child's own words.
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
Read the story, then ask what the character should have done differently — the comprehension cards give you the questions if you'd rather not invent them. The gazelle mask and finger puppets let a child retell the tale from the inside, which is when they start using the Arabic rather than repeating it. The board game suits two or more players.
Suitable for home learning, nurseries and Arabic classes. Ages 3 and up.
Frequently Asked Questions
What age is this pack for?
Ages 3 and up. Younger children will enjoy the mask, puppets and stickers; older children can read the tales independently and discuss the comprehension cards on their own.
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. Teachers use the puppets and comprehension cards for group reading and discussion, and the activity and sticker sheets for individual work. For multiple sets, see our school and institution orders page.
