Africana Activity Bookis the interactive companion to the trailblazing Africana (Wide Eyed Editions, 2022), featuring games, quizzes, creative prompts and puzzles that explore and celebrate the diverse facets of Africa.
Learn to say 'hello' in five African languages, take a tour of ancient civilizations, spot tiny hippos and giant snails, and meet dozens of iconic African changemakers in this exciting activity book that invites readers 6-9 years old to experience the world’s fastest-growing continent.
Africana Activity Book includes over 25 unique activities and dozens of facts about the countries of Africa – their people, their wildlife, and the stories they tell. An enormous fold-out poster showcasing the map and flags of Africa, and 25 spectacular stickers, ensure that the discovery continues long after the last activity is finished. From Nollywood blockbusters to Kenya's tech-tastic 'Silicon Savannah', via the pyramids of Egypt and the roaring crowds of AFCON, the rich history and bright future of the continent are showcased here in all their glory.
Ideal as a learning resource, a hands-on introduction to Black History, or simply an engaging way to spend a rainy afternoon, Africana Activity Book is the perfect gift for armchair travellers, animal lovers and budding historians.
