Baby’s First Multilingual Stor

Baby’s First Multilingual Stor

An educational but fun animated multilingual book aimed at children from ages 1-5. It teaches children to read by using simple English, Chinese and Japanese and lots of repetition.

This book teaches colors, opposites and the verb ‘have’. Each page uses clear text designed to make it easier for children to read and each page contains animations and sounds to keep young children interested and engaged.

The game’s multilingual nature mimics parallel text stories. At any point in the story you can switch to another language to hear a native speaker read the story in their language. The Japanese version contains Hiragana in addition to Kanji to make it simpler for children. Similarly, the Simplified Chinese version contains pinyin and the Traditional Chinese version contains Zhuyin Fuhao (bopomofo).

The game element helps to develop memory of the words and make the experience more interactive because children learn better with interactive elements.

This book was written by a teacher with educational principals in mind.
