Merlin Publishers has just published four new sets of flashcards in Maltese in a series of six packs, complementing the first two sets L-Alfabett and Annimali, Insetti u Għasafar. The new packs are entitled Ikel, Ħwejjeġ u Ġugarelli, Ibni s-Sentenzi and Aqtagħli Kurżità.
We all know how tricky it can be to introduce the Maltese language to the very young, especially when – for whatever reason – they are more exposed to English on a daily basis. One of the most hands-on ways is usually flashcards, or leħħiet in Maltese, for a multitude of reasons, but especially because they are so versatile, interactive, hands-on and can easily be turned into game-like activities.
