Learn Hindi Alphabet Activity Workbook (Bilingual English Hindi Learning Workbooks)

I have alot of learning tools for Hindi, but I think this is a particularly good one. It keeps my daughter's attention, yet also gets across the relevant information. I think it's a good starting book.

Even though this workbook is designed for children I found it very useful for learning the Devanagari (Hindi) alphabet. I have a few books for learning Hindi but they give you parts of the alphabet at a time while loading you up with words and jumping quickly into the devangari script. This personally made me feel overwhelmed and I decided it would be best to learn the script first. Now, everything else seems much more accessible. The reason I only gave it 4 stars was because I had expected it to have pages teaching you how to properly write the letters. (Remember back in elementary school when you got the pages where you traced the letter a few times before filling the page with your own attempts.) Each letter did have a single line for writing your own but, no instruction as to how to form it.

Great buy if your beginning, they teach you as if you are a total beginner which really helps. Excited to keep learning.

This book is good for practicing Hindi letters. As a beginner, I find that what you need is s good basic text as well as supportive materials. In my study, I've used Rupert Snell's book on Hindi script and I highly recommend it. I have used this book for supporting material, but I find several cases where the author(s) disagree with Snell on certain pronunciations. You'd think the experts would agree on pronunciation. I like this book--and this series--but I'd use other books, too.

Awesome Hindi workbook!

Got this book today, was very excited about it.Although I'm happy with the content, the pages in the book is wrongly sequenced. The first page is for letter D, it is very frustrating to teach a kid with this book because you need to keep going back n forth. I will return.

Anything that helps cement the recognition and formation of devanagari characters is helpful - even for timid adults - especially when used in conjunction with other sources.

You really need to hear the pronunciation so a native would understand what I was saying. Get Rosetta Stone much better even though it's more expensive

How I wish I'd bought this when I first started learning Hindi! The hours I've spent copying syllabaries, trying to translate devanagari into romanised Hindi then into English...The format is perfect for learning symbols which otherwise are hard to commit to memory; first you colour in the 'nagari character, twice in different colours, then an image related to the character then there are lines where you repeat the writing of the character yourself and an activity where you will seek and find the character aiding recognition . Perhaps colouring in seems childish but it is fun and taking the time to do this careful does make you familar with the 'symbol'. Just like the other reviewer I've bought the other related books in the series. Simple, practical and fun. It is an effective way to learn Hindi devanagari characters if you are totally unfamilar with them. My son who is 9 is now enjoying this too :-)

I had been searching for a way to help me learn Hindi in a simple way.The experts recommend learning Devangali script initially before moving on to more advanced books.Having tried various methods of learning found this book by chance and felt this would be the best way to go.Its based on simple colouring of pictures and the letters plus other activities to help reinforce learning.Just bear in mind that is aimed at young children learning a language.I could have cried when I got this book as its perfect for total beginners.There are other books in this series and have just ordered the others.My advice would be to start with this simple book first.I'm amazed at how much I actually remember.Also invest in some decent materials ie pencil case notebook and some STAEDTLER colouring pencils.Try this book first you wont be disapointed.Also listed in the index is a list of other related books which are worth investigation at a later stage of learning including very simple readers.

I just recieved the workbook, and it is very practical, helpful, and methodic even for adult learners. I am fluent in spoken Hindi, and can write in Roman Hindi, and have been trying to use online tools to learn the Nagari script, but I find the script to be so alien. However, the first in the series, this workbook is methodic in approaching the vowels, and consonants, and further dividing the consonants, according to the sound, into categories to help you learn each cluster systematically. I find it very useful as a beginners guide to the Hindi alphabet.

Great book, engaging presentation and quality of printing much better than the standard Hindi writing books which are quite tacky

Poor quality
