Overview

There are so many games that I remember my Persian Mum and Persian dad teaching me as I grew up. These games are embedded in my memory and have shaped and formed my Iranian/Persian Identity in my early years. They built unbreakable bonds with me and my siblings and grandparents and are part of my core memories growing up. Persian games is not just a book but a collection of memories that has lead to my strong connection with my Iranian heritage despite never having lived in Iran. It also helped shape my language and strengthened my Persian vocabulary.I'll never forget playing hokm with my brothers, mum, dad and grandpa. The cheating and the banter that ensues are part of my most cherished memories.I hope they can also be part of yours too.

I highly recommend these AWESOME Books. If you know anyone who is speaking Persian to their children or wants them to learn Persian words but cannot read the Farsi [Persian]. This series solves their problem. CEO Persian Playgroup Jayron Finan The best Persian language resource for bilingual children! Even I am learning from them! These books were clearly made with a lot of love.I pulled them out this week and not only was our daughter fascinated, but I am adding to my own vocabulary too. Verified Buyer Lilly G. These books are fun and unique. I can never seem to find other Persian books that provide the same easy to learn qualities without feeling overwhelmed with information, Shahs of Sunset Adam Farahan Finglisi, now thats my style of talking! If you are someone who is trying to learn, married to someone who speaks Farsi, it's not just for kids! You can phonetically put the words together. It is very easy for someone who doesn't speak Persian. I loved that you did this. I have searched for a while! This is Brilliant! TV News Anchor Shally Zomorodi
