Teaching tips:
Use as part of getting children to understand how humans have offspring which grow into adults.
Let children discuss, notice and ask questions about what they see. Talk about which stage they are currently at and what stages came before and will come after.
Children could be invited to bring in baby photos of themselves, prompting other children to guess which child it is. This is also great for getting children to observe changes in humans over time.
