Review: Educational & Cool - My 10 year old daughter has found this a fun way to learn about ancient times. Review: Superb!! With STAMPS! Perfect for children of all ages of all ages - What a super product! It is a book-box: in the box there is a set of stamps with the 24 hieroglyphs that represent sounds, and there is also a small book with just the right amount of information for a child about the alphabet, the language, the Rosetta stone, and some puzzles to decipher. I learned so much with this book! I am so glad I bought it for my daughter. She is very interested in Egypt, loves puzzles, and break the code games. It is simply perfect for her. Note: the ink is on the dry side... I will probably buy some stamping ink at some point in time. Some reviewer complaint about the size of the stamps. I think they are just fine: they are for writing! My child has smaller stamps from when she was younger. They are about a quarter size each. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #90,580 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #71 in Children's Ancient History #217 in Language Study for Children (Books) #3,479 in Children's Activity Books (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 350 Reviews | ## Images ![Fun with Hieroglyphs - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/719DHU0JoWL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Educational & Cool *by M***G on December 3, 2025* My 10 year old daughter has found this a fun way to learn about ancient times. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb!!

It is SO thin and certainly would not live up to a classroom of children all having a turn! The stamps themselves are cheap quality but if inked correctly and pressed down hard do make a good impression. Our children enjoyed writing their names and creating a secret message. SO what's the book like? After starting with an introduction it moves on to talk about the hieroglyph alphabet. It then lists the alphabet in English, along with the hieroglyph and the sound it is used for. Some letters have more than one hieroglyph attached to them depending on the sound being made. Throughout the book there are puzzles quizzing you on what you have just read. Answers are provided in the back. How about the orientation? What is a cartouche? Several helpful phrases are provided so you can send your own secret messages. Learn how to count with hieroglyphs, about the scribes and the paper they wrote on. Of course no book on hieroglyphs would be complete without the mention of the Rosetta Stone which comes towards the end of this book. SO despite the poor quality of the ink pad I still recommend this book if you are studying Ancient Egypt as it allows children to actually practice what they have learned. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fun with Hieroglyphs - National Geographic Kids Everything Ancient Egypt: Dig Into a Treasure Trove of Facts, Photos, and Fun - A Child's Introduction to Egyptology: The Mummies, Pyramids, Pharaohs, Gods, and Goddesses of Ancient Egypt (A Child's Introduction Series) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.es/products/5856291-fun-with-hieroglyphs](https://www.desertcart.es/products/5856291-fun-with-hieroglyphs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Spain* *Store origin: ES* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
