"Ciphers For the Little Folks" by Dorothy Crain is an educational publication written in the early 20th century. This instructional book aims to teach young children about the Biliteral Cipher developed by Sir Francis Bacon, encouraging them to engage actively with reading, writing, and number work through hands-on activities. The book focuses on cultivating observational skills in children while also providing an engaging method for learning basic communication through ciphers. The content of the book is structured as a series of lessons that introduce children to the Biliteral Cipher, guiding them through practical exercises that involve creating and deciphering coded messages. Each lesson presents a different approach to using the cipher, from simple exercises involving shapes and colors to symbolic designs that convey hidden words. Additionally, an appendix includes a narrative on the origin, history, and design of the alphabet, enhancing the educational value by linking the study of ciphers to the broader context of language development. The book combines play and learning, making it suitable for both parents and educators looking to enrich the learning experience for young children in a playful and interactive way.
