This unique A3 sized 2010 calendar features a series of stunning photographs by Jan Gamble depicting children of different faiths celebrating religious and cultural festivals in the UK.

As well as beautiful photos, the calendar includes important background information about the festivals, and the key dates for 2010.

It also has an exciting optional interactive feature available - with fesival stories, music and songs accessible using Mantra Lingua's new Recoder Pen.

Click the play buttons to hear examples of the festival stories.

Recorder pen info:

The RecorderPEN brings sound to paper. When the pen touches a poster or a book that is pen-enabled, it speaks. The pen detects soundspots on any page in and plays back whatever audio has been pre-programmed into the paper.

The festivals calendar features music and information, as well as Child’s Eye Media’s festivals stories, which have been re-told for younger children with the help of the faith groups involved.

The RecorderPEN doesn't just play back pre-recorded sound. You can use the pen to record yourself, or let children record themselves, and listen to recordings instantly. Simply switch to the recording function, touch a soundspot and record and save. This is a fantastic way to improve speaking, listening and storytelling skills. Children can re-tell the festival stories in their own words, record their own festival celebrations, or add their own music and factual information
