Tatreez is a form of traditional embroidery practiced across various Middle Eastern and North African cultures, particularly prominent in Palestinian and Jordanian communities. This art form involves intricate stitching using colorful threads to create geometric patterns and motifs.
At Zeki Learning, each product is lovingly handcrafted by skilled mothers and women artisans in the West Bank.

Let your child’s memory development soar with the Air Animals Memory Game. This set is composed of 8 air animal pairs for a total of 16 pieces. Your child will learn about real world concepts and improve memory, while having fun!
The Air Animals Memory Games establishes essential reading, math, and memory retention. The game element of visually comparing images will increase pre-reading skills. These processes are similar to comparing the shapes and sounds of each letter. Develop their math skills through counting, sorting and measuring, and comparing and contrasting. When playing with friends, children will build important relational concepts like sharing. Take the game wherever you go with the portable carrying case!
The Air Animals Memory Game assists in learning about animals and the environment. Consistent study with the Memory Game promotes nature and science knowledge, reading, math, social development, and dramatic play.
