Full of humour and heart, Māui And His First Journey is part of an exciting resource called Whakatipu which reinforces how tamariki and parents can learn together through play at every age and stage. Whakatipu is designed to meet the demand for free, accessible, Māori-focused parenting and child development information. Available in English and Te Reo Māori, this app introduces parents, whānau and tamariki into the world of adventure, brain development, waiata and pakiwaitara.
For more information about Whakatipu, visit the SKIP website for free Whakatipu booklets and low-cost activities you can enjoy with your tamariki and whānau.
