Making a comic is a wonderful way to involve children in some creativity and storytelling. Although writing is limited in the actual online comic maker, kids can still use it as a spark for a story of their own.

Play with literacy even more, and work out children's names according to the Egyptian Hieroglyphic Alphabet.
