I haven’t seen all of this series though I did review The Ng in Ningaloo earlier this year but I do know it has been very popular in clAssrooms as educators ARe always keen to make learning enjoyable and memorable. The many variations of the ‘ar’ sound ARe covered in this imaginary trip Around Amazing and magnificent Sydney HARbour [do remember, I am a Sydney girl].

From Luna PARk to ShARk Island and on to Watsons Bay via Kirribilli, it’s a full panorAma of the best of the best hARbour in the world. So essentially, by adding this to your repertOIRe, you have not only a language lesson but also a spectaculAR geography and landmARks HASS mini-lesson…Winner winner!

It’s an easy-to-grAsp text in which your Smalls can enjoy pARticipating by hands-on-head or whatever each time they hear the ‘AR’ sound. And the illustrations are, once again, just mARvellous – so vibrant and redolent of Sydney’s chARm. We always love fun learning and this is a great example. Jump onto it for your kiddos from Prep up to Year 2ish. It’s a 4 🎡🎢🎠🌊rating for this one.

PS Did you know that Luna Park, Sydney, just turned 90!! My coz and I shared some very happy memories of outings there – which were special treats and always fun.
