About Rabbithat
Welcome to Rabbithat! We’re a Singapore-based education startup passionate about fun and engaging learning. We firmly believe that education extends beyond the classroom not just in scope but in content, and create materials to teach ideas and thinking not often found in schools.
Our products all centre around language. We want to help people express themselves more articulately, and also to have a deeper understanding of how language works and shapes the way we see the world.
Our debut product, published in winter 2023, is a book suitable for children 3 and up titled It’s Raining Cats and Dogs … and other animal idioms, sayings, and expressions. Language-learning resources often focus only on the formal aspects of speaking and reading, but through this book we’re bringing attention to colloquial aspects of English, which is just as necessary to achieve fluency. After all, early birds get the worm, and we hope this book can help children and ESL adults to understand and appreciate a different side of English than they’re used to. We aim to release more idiom-themed books in the coming months as well!
Our next product, coming out in summer 2024, is a set of cards focused on Latin roots. Many people know Latin has an influence on English; perhaps they’re aware that “aqua” means water, for example. However, not as many realise that just a small knowledge of Latin can dramatically increase your English vocabulary. Our cards are designed to be played as a game or used as a study set, with clear icons and definitions written to reinforce how English words, some common and some not, can be clearly traced to Latin. Bonus: they’ll help you learn French, Spanish, and other Romance languages too! This set couldn’t contain even half of the Latin roots we think you ought to know, and we’ll release a supplementary set a few months down the road, with a Greek roots set after that.
Some of our other products in the works are designed to teach cognitive and logical fallacies (a must-know in our scary age of misinformation) and grammar through the use of popular songs. Take a look at our blog and make a beeline to our store to learn more about our products and how much kids have enjoyed them!
Whether you're a parent, a teacher, or just someone who loves to see kids light up with excitement, we invite you to join us on this educational adventure. Together, let's inspire the next generation of curious minds and help them reach for the stars.
