What is your
name
Eddie is a cheerful, cute, and sometimes a naughty little kid. He is three years old and lives with his mummy Ellie and his daddy Can. Eddie likes playing games with his friends Teo and Lola and enjoys reading books with his mummy. He loves visiting his grandparents too. Eddie gestures very loudly when he gets excited and can be very noisy when playing with his toys.
Eddie’s mummy Ellie is an English teacher. Ellie always tries to find an exciting way to teach her students new things and is a good artist. Eddie sometimes helps her with the artistic side of things if he doesn’t scribble. Eddie and Ellie make funny looking cookies together and always read a book before bedtime.
Eddie’s daddy Can also loves toy cars. They make ramps with Eddie and race their cars. Can is a businessman and works from his office. Eddie sometimes spends time at the office too. He helps his daddy, and they order takeaway food for lunch.
Eddie loves visiting his grandparents and spending time with them. They collect many fun memories together.
Eddie also loves playing with his friends Teo, Lola, Kyle, Violette and Myles. Their favourite card game is snap. They are all very curious and always wonder about things and ask questions to their families and teachers.

Growing up in a family of many educators, we always had friends and families asking us what they could do at home to teach and practice English with their kids. They wanted something that helped them as parents and made learning new words and concepts in English enjoyable for their kids. The idea of creating such a company matured in 2019, a year after I had my son Ediz. Ediz would call himself Eddie when somebody asked his name because he couldn’t pronounce the Z’s; this is how my character Eddie was inspired. With encouragement from my husband Can and my family, I started up my business in 2021 in Istanbul by teaming up with amazing people at Beynelmilel, managed by Ferhat Tümer and one of the most creative illustrators ever, Büşra Çakmak.
Being born and raised in Australia, I was able to lead Ediz in becoming a bilingual child. Witnessing how a baby grows and acquires a language combined with my 16 years of experience as an English teacher set a path in creating my educational products. I knew what many mums and dads wanted, and after having a child, I knew what made it possible. It was playing and learning going hand in hand. English with Eddie educational products aim to teach your child new English words and concepts with play and share. You can take the English with Eddie products wherever you go, and your child can play and learn with friends and family.
