Arabic For Kids goes past the alphabet into vocabulary, teaching everyday Arabic words to children and beginners.
Words are grouped by theme — animals, food, colours, numbers, family, the home — with a picture and audio for each. Learning in themed sets rather than alphabetically is what makes the vocabulary usable: a child learns the words that go together in a sentence at the same time.
Each set is followed by recognition and matching exercises, so words are tested shortly after being introduced rather than only presented.
It suits a learner who has the letters and needs something to read, and works equally for an adult beginner despite the name — the themed-vocabulary approach is the same one adult courses use.
