The Child's Play books that I stock all have images of children from different cultures aswell as images of disabled children.

If you have a look on websites like national geographic you can print off photos of people and places or why not get some travel brochures and let the children make a scrapbook of countries.

That's a brilliant idea Miffy!
I've got a scrapbook that we're putting together slow-time just showing photos and drawings of different people and I've run out of ideas of where to get anymore!
National Geographic it is!
