3. Important Note To The Parents
● 123 Book only introduces 1, 2 & 3.
● Similarly, the ABCD Book only introduces letters till only
D.
● Please do not be surprised to see that bigger numbers and
later letters are missing! This has been done intentionally
and is the right way to teach children numbers and
letters.
● Did you know that most children in this age group
(1.5-2.5 yrs old) do not truly understand beyond 3?
● By focussing only first few numbers and letters and
reinforcing them for few months, you will see that in long
term, your child will develop strong fundamentals.

4. How Should I Start?
1. Set aside a regular time. Recommended: 5-15 minutes,
4 times a week.
2. Keep distractions at bay.
3. Create a fun and lively environment.
4. Children learn slowly, so it is important for parents to
be patient.
5. During learning session, keep talking and engaging
with the child.
6. Look for opportunities to keep reinforcing the concepts
in everyday life.
7. Motivation and encouragement are important.

5. Abcd BOOk

6. 1. Focus on establishing the association between 3 things: Letter
(A), Sound (Aah) and the name of the object example (Apple).
This association development is crucial for future learning and
development.
2. Lay a slightly higher degree of emphasis on the first part of the
sound of the object. ‘Aah-pple’.
3. Slight emphasis, done occasionally, will help the child
understand that we have chosen this object as an example to
represent the letter, because it starts with the sound (Aah).
4. Help the child trace the shape of the letter with his/her finger.
5. In the book, the ABCD is repeated thrice with subtle variations.
Reiteration with subtle variations has proven benefits.

7. Body Parts Book
7

8. 1. Encourage the child to point to the corresponding
part on his/her own body.
2. Make the child point to the body parts of the
parent or sibling nearby.
3. Pay attention while teaching body parts that are
closely located on the body.
For example, Lips, Tongue and Teeth. Pictures
from the book can sometimes be inadequate for
illustrating their differences effectively.

9. Concepts Book
9

10. 1. Look to reinforce the concepts introduced in the
book in your everyday conversations with the
child.
2. This book is ideal for posing a lot of questions.
For example, you can ask the child to point to the
blue colour thread-ball. Or “Is the man going up
the stairs or coming down?”
3. You can also build narratives or start a dialogue
using the pictures in the book as a starting point.
For example, you can point to the morning page
and start talking about what happened today
morning.

11. Objects, Actions &
Relationships BookS
11

12. 1. Think of stories, anecdotes and interactive ideas that
help the child understand concepts better.
2. For example, while using Relationships book, you can
point to a person (in real life) and make the child
repeat name of the relationship and build a story
around it.
3. While using the Objects book, you can bring the
real-life object and show it to the child (or take the
child near to the object).
4. While using the Actions book, you can imitate the
actions being shown on the pages and may be even
encourage the child to perform those actions (your
surroundings permitting).

13. 123 Book
13

14. 1. Focus on establishing the association between 3
things: Example, Numeral (2), Sound (Two) and the
name of the object example (Apple). This association
development is crucial for future learning and
development.
2. Some children might the concept of 3 a bit
challenging. You can choose to skip the number 3 if
you wish.
3. When you are showing your child a number larger
than 1, say 3, do not directly say ‘three’. Instead a
better approach is to count the objects on the page
one-by-one and reach three. Example, one ball, two
and three balls.
4. Lastly, it is a good idea to help the child count the
objects by pointing its finger on the objects.
