How to try it

Print a few photos of people and pets your toddler knows, and tape one to each page of a card-stock or thin cardboard book. Look through it together and name each person or pet, pausing for your toddler to point.

Materials

  • Printed photos
  • Card stock or thin cardboard
  • Wide tape
  • Scissors

Safety note

Cover every edge of the tape and photos so nothing peels off, keep scissors for yourself, and stop your toddler chewing on the pages.
