The Backpack of Fahman the Explorer – Educational Pack & Books for Kids in Arabic
Fahman explores, and children learn the Arabic words for what he finds — birds, wild animals, the natural world. Five stories come with an owl mask, a parrot mask, a 3D crocodile and finger puppets, so the exploring carries on after the book closes.
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 one adventure, then use the animal sorting game to name everything Fahman met along the way. The masks work best with more than one child — one owl, one parrot, and a story that gets retold rather than recited. The memo cards are good for quieter moments and quietly drill the same vocabulary.
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 masks, puppets and stickers; older children can read the stories independently and work through 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 masks and sorting games for group work and the activity and sticker sheets for individual practice. For multiple sets, see our school and institution orders page.
