How to . . . have fun with hieroGlyphiCs

Hieroglyphics was the writing system used by Ancient Egyptians. Some hieroglyphs look like birds or strange creatures, while others seem little more than squiggles but they would all have meant something in the time of The Kane Chronicles. Egyptians used lots of dierent hiero-

glyphs, which were sometimes based on drawings of objects or the sound of particular words. In fact, there may have been several thousand dierent hieroglyphs, each representing a word, letter or concept. Above is one guide to the equivalent letters of our own A to Z. You can use this alphabet to write anything you like. And because only people with the same alphabet can understand your words, its a great way to write

in code! Why not start by writing your name here?

Now try to write the following words all connected to The Kane Chronicles and ancient Egypt in hieroglyphics: pyramid mummy Osiris sphinx Shabti

YOUR REVIEW
Snowdonia For the rst week of the Easter holidays I went to Snowdonia, north Wales. It was a great experience, I never thought I would see so high mountains in England & Wales! It looked like the Alps with all the mountainside lakes. One of the days it was so windy that the lakes had waves on them! I would very much recommend staying in this area, especially in Betws-y-Coed and Bala. It is also fun for older kids as there is a go-karting circuit. Lorenzo Montani, 9 Well done Lorenzo, a Hop EB toy is on its way to you!
