The Aboriginal Symbol Cards set is a valuable educational resource designed to introduce children to commonly recognised Aboriginal symbols and their meanings. Aboriginal symbols have long played a crucial role in storytelling, cultural expression, and the transmission of knowledge across generations. This beautifully illustrated set of 20 cards helps children develop an appreciation for Aboriginal art, history, and traditional communication methods.

Each symbol represents an aspect of life, nature, or community, providing insight into Aboriginal perspectives on hunting, tracking, animals, and connection to Country. The set encourages visual learning, creative storytelling, and cultural exploration, making it an excellent addition to classrooms and learning environments.

Why this set is beneficial for educational use:

  • Introduces children to Aboriginal symbols and their meanings.
  • Supports storytelling and visual literacy through symbolic language.
  • Encourages discussions about Indigenous perspectives and traditional knowledge.
