A fun way to teach your child about different animals is to create your own story book that features pictures of your child interacting with various animals. To gather photos for your book, visit your local farm or zoo, or take a walk around the neighborhood and snap photos of your child with the neighborhood pets.

Once you have collected pictures of your child with a variety of animals, create a new book in Picaboo and add your photos. You may want to devote a page spread to each different type of animal. Include some information about the animal, such as where it lives and what its offspring are called. You can include questions such as, "Can you find the kitty's ears?" to help your child look more closely at each photo and learn about the differences between the different creatures.

When you are finished creating your book, order a professionally bound copy that you and your child can read together again and again. Your toddler will love seeing photos of himself or herself interacting with all of their favorite animals. This "Baby's Animal Book" is sure to become one of their most-loved books.
