Initial results showed early reading ability was in the emerging category (36.88%). Lingualand was developed as an interactive application containing letter recognition, vowels and consonants, and Malay-Riau cultural vocabulary with engaging audio and visuals. Validation indicated very high feasibility: content experts (87.50%), media experts (84.62%), linguists (87.50%), and educators (88.18%). A limited trial produced 95.31% (very high).
