 Jareer Bookstore has several “Write and Wipe”English books on sale for $9 and $10 SAR each. The illustrated series was designed to help your child improve their alphabet, writing, spelling and number skills. 

 

Save a SAR and the Series:  Hence the name “Write and Wipe,” the series can be used over and over again, just wipe it clean with dry cloth or tissue.

The books aren’t bulky (there are about 15 pages in each). They’re laminated, sturdy and well worth the money. Once your child outgrows the series, you can store it until your next lil one is ready.

 
 
Test Your Marker: The back of each book has a space designated for you to test your marker before your child writes inside (use the dry-erase whiteboard pens). Should you goof and give your child the wrong type of marker, just wipe the book clean with a mixture of bleach, dish detergent and water (it won’t be harmed in the least).

As salaamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh. Alhamdulillaah, Shaykh Muhammad al Malikee is giving out study materials for beginners in the ‘Arabic language. Please contact him for details: ilm4all@yahoo.com If that address doesn’t work, then send your request to ilmforall@hotmail.com I am not sure if you need to be a regular student of his to receive the materials…it won’t hurt to ask In Shaa Allaah.
