To help children learn the Mandarin phonetic symbols, editors have come up with some clever methods: Some have colorful "phonetic symbol" fish for the children to catch. Others hide new vocabulary terms in variously colored hats or vases. The hope is that the children will remember the language through enjoying it.
例如國語科習作上，為了要讓孩子熟悉注音符號，編輯們想盡了辦法：像塗有五彩的「注音魚」讓孩子撈，生字藏在各種顏色的帽子、花盆裡，期望跟孩子「玩」出對語文的記憶。
