Letter Sounds – Arabic Short Vowels (Harakat) Workbook for Kids (Step 4 of 6)

🎧 Audio & online games coming soon. We're adding AI-enhanced audio so your child can hear every sound said out loud in Arabic, plus interactive online games that practise the same skills. Even if no one at home speaks Arabic, your child will hear it clearly and can repeat it.

This is where reading begins! Step 4 introduces the 3 “little helpers” of Arabic: fatha, kasra and damma. These tiny marks turn a letter into a sound your child can read: ba, bi, bu.

Each mark has its own color and a simple mouth-shape trick (open wide, big smile, little kiss), so even 5-year-olds remember them.

What's inside

• Meet the 3 little helpers: an intro page with color coding and mouth shapes
• Say it and trace it: 7 pages covering all 28 letters with a, i and u
• Long sounds: stretch it: baa, bee, boo
• Read-it games: 2 pages of sounds to read aloud, with stars to color
• Adventure Map and certificate: to follow the path and celebrate Step 4
• Grown-up guide: how to practise sounds in a mirror

What your child will learn

• What fatha, kasra and damma look like and sound like
• To read 84 short sounds: every letter with a, i and u
• The 3 long sounds made with ا و ي
• Their very first steps in reading Arabic

Why parents like it
