Runic alphabet

Hi there little one! Do you want to hear about a cool type of writing that was used a long, long time ago called the runic alphabet?

Well, the runic alphabet is a special type of writing that was used by some people who lived a really long time ago in places like Scandinavia, Germany and Britain. It looks different from the writing we use today because instead of letters, they used a bunch of symbols that were kind of like pictures!

These symbols were carved into things like rocks, bones, and pieces of wood, so people could use them to share messages or tell stories during a time when not many people could read and write.

One of the really interesting things about the runic alphabet is that each symbol had a special meaning, kind of like how our letters make up words that mean something when we put them together. The people who used this writing also believed that the symbols had magical powers, so they used them for things like predicting the future or casting spells.

Nowadays, the runic alphabet isn't used as much anymore, but some people still think it's pretty cool! And if you look online, you can learn more about what each symbol means and even try to write your own messages using the runic letters!
