Language Learning through Stories
The Tales of Arthur the Elf is a unique programme that immerses children in language learning from an early age. It was designed to capture a child’s imagination through storytelling.
The structure of the programme enables an immersive language teaching method. This makes it both ideal and successful for excelling a child in their mother tongue or building their foundations in a second language.
Unlike many language learning programmes which focus solely on teaching vocabulary, our educational materials focus on immersion in language but also literacy, cultural awareness, art, geography, history and more. This is truly unique and provides our youngest learners with an incredible head start with their future learning.
The programme can be used by both teachers and parents. It can be delivered within families or educational settings making learning a foreign language a natural part of early learning and development.
Learn & Play





Learn & Play is the first level of our language programme. It is organised into two series of three parts each.
Series 1 offers twelve storybooks (with audio), twelve animated role play games (videos), six activity books and three teacher/parent guides.
Our educational materials are available on a subscription basis and delivered monthly by post (storybooks and activity books) by logging into our website (videos) and by email (sound files and teacher/parent guides). We also provide support throughout your membership.
Learn & Play Series 1 is available for subscription in English, French, Spanish, German and Italian.
