In the rapidly evolving digital era, children’s learning experiences are increasingly shaped by interactive technologies, multimedia content, and early exposure to multiple languages. While traditional storybooks remain important for nurturing literacy and imagination, they may not fully engage today’s digital-native learners. This study presents the design, development, and evaluation of an innovative multilingual interactive children’s storybook that bridges traditional print and digital learning through QR code integration. The storybook promotes early literacy and language development across Tamil, English, Malay, Jawi, and Tamil transliteration. Special emphasis is placed on accurate pronunciation, using bolded Tamil scripts and transliterated text to support guided reading for both native and non-native speakers. The printed storybook is enhanced with scannable QR codes that connect readers to interactive multimedia resources such as narrated video readings, AI-generated songs, and gamified activities tailored to auditory, visual, and kinesthetic learning styles. The development process involved iterative prototyping, careful visual and linguistic adaptation, and systematic multimedia embedding. User testing was conducted with children, parents, and educators to refine design and functionality. Evaluation methods included observation checklists, comprehension tasks, questionnaires, and semi-structured interviews. Findings revealed higher learner engagement, improved pronunciation, and strong positive perceptions of usability and educational value. Participants appreciated the cultural and linguistic inclusivity of the materials. This study illustrates how technology-enhanced, culturally responsive storybooks can enrich early childhood literacy. By combining multilingual content with multimedia interactivity, the project proposes a scalable and inclusive model for multicultural education. The research contributes to educational technology, early literacy, and language acquisition, highlighting the promise of hybrid print-digital resources in supporting meaningful 21st-century learning experiences.
