See and Learn First Word Pictures - Vocabulary

See and Learn First Word Pictures helps children learn a vocabulary of 60 common first words through a series of activities using picture cards.

These early words include the names of people and objects (nouns), action words (verbs) and other words important to everyday situations (such as 'bye-bye' and 'more').

There are 48 picture cards to illustrate most of these early words. The additional 12 words are not illustrated, as these are introduced as extra words to within the activities - the activity cards explain how to do this.

Please add your own photographs of 'Mummy' and 'Daddy' on the blank cards provided.
