Pictogram-based Literacy Learning Lift-the-Flap Book

This 4-book set is designed to help children transition smoothly from preschool to primary school while learning essential Chinese characters. It includes four engaging chapters: Birds and Animals, Flowers and Trees, Human Civilisation, and Astronomy and Geography, each introducing characters in a fun, thematic context. Each book not only shows the character's form but also explains its meaning, origins, and evolution, using vivid pictures to strengthen memory and comprehension. The books follow a three-step method for learning: one character, one picture, one story, which helps children associate characters with visual and narrative cues.

Aimed at children aged 2-7, this series taps into the "golden period" for literacy acquisition, where children can learn three years' worth of characters in just one year. The books are carefully crafted to avoid mechanical memorisation, following the guidelines of the Ministry of Education's "3-6 Year-Old Children's Learning and Development Guide", which emphasizes developing a love for words in everyday contexts. By combining Chinese and English explanations, the books also introduce bilingual learning. The book design showcases the evolution of characters from pictographs to modern forms, using stories to explain their origins and strengthen memory. It prepares children for a smooth transition to Primary 1 Chinese learning, fostering both cognitive and language development. 

Suitable for 2-7 years old
