What the child does

Animal Names in a child's hands

Twenty seven wild and domestic animals with the names of the male, the female and the young, a hundred and twelve cards in all with twenty seven controls and title cards. The cards are in English, which keeps separate words for these: a horse is a stallion, a mare and a foal, and none of the three sounds like the others. That is a vocabulary a child cannot deduce and has to be given, which is exactly what a card set is for. White card stock, for ages 3 to 6.

Language Development

Expands zoological vocabulary with the names of the male, female and young through concrete matching work.

Reading Practice

Reinforces reading skills through clear text recognition and word-⁠to-⁠concept matching.
