Reading Pen - Interactive Learning Tool

Bring the printed page to life with the 123READER talking pen.

The 123READER is a talking pen that reads printed material aloud. Touch it to any page in a 123 book, wall chart or educational pack and it reads the text in a clear voice — turning a quiet page into an interactive lesson.

How the reading pen works

Every 123 title carries hidden audio codes printed into the page. The pen recognises them the moment it touches the paper, so a child can read independently without a parent or teacher reading along. There is no app, no screen and no internet connection required.

Who it suits

The reading pen suits families teaching Arabic at home, especially where the parent is not a confident Arabic reader, and classrooms where a teacher cannot sit with every child individually. It is also widely used with children learning Arabic as a second language.
