Habeshi: a game board of face-down cards with Amharic word labelsHabeshi: the sticker book, with hand-drawn animals collected so far

The story

Habeshi comes from a German-Ethiopian family. It is a small way to give Amharic a place in everyday family life: listen, play together, and recognise a familiar word.

A child finds matching pictures and hears the Amharic word each time a card turns over. The board starts small and grows with practice. Fidel is shown but never needed to play.
