Deadly Discovery Backpacks – celebrating Aboriginal culture and stories
The Deadly Discovery Backpacks have been developed as part of Better Beginnings’ ongoing commitment to engaging Aboriginal families with library services and early literacy resources. They are available for families to borrow for free from participating public libraries in WA. The Deadly Discovery Backpacks focus specifically on Aboriginal culture and stories, and they feature books that have been written or illustrated by Aboriginal people. They provide Aboriginal families in metropolitan and regional areas with access to resources that are culturally inclusive, interactive and fun.
The Deadly Discovery Backpacks have been developed for families with children aged 2-5, and are suitable for any family with an interest in Aboriginal culture and stories. Each backpack contains books, a puppet and a musical instrument. The activity booklet inside the backpack encourages families to enjoy sharing stories, rhymes and literacy experiences together at home.
