Our Story

The inception of Littera was sparked by Rhea, the daughter of our co-founder, Myra. During the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, Myra noticed her daughter, Rhea, facing difficulties in learning Arabic letters. Determined to assist her child’s learning journey, Myra started creating colorful and interactive methods, such as coloring and cutting letters, leading to the birth of Littera.
