The Hong Kong Bird Watching Society (HKBWS) and Wild Bird Society of Japan (WBSJ) jointly published the Spoon-billed Sandpiper Teaching Kit. This kit is designed for teachers and education leaders to provide information about wetlands and the Critically Endangered Spoon-billed Sandpiper for lesson planning. The kit includes the general knowledge of wetlands, an illustrated story of the Spoon-billed Sandpiper migration, the conservation work on this species, and a variety of indoor and outdoor activities and materials.

The education kit is available in English, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Burmese. The acknowledgment was to Wild Bird Society of Japan and Biodiversity And Nature Conservation Association (BANCA-BirdLife Myanmar) for translating the teaching kit, and Lam Pei Studio for illustration.
