The objects are not an exact copy of the photo, so children need to carefully observe the details so that they match correctly.
Children's problem solves by looking at the distinctive attributes that they can see both in the object and in the photo. They will generally start with color and remove images that do not share the same color. They can also see shapes, patterns, and details.
They might wonder "what animals are white?" Then they will notice more than one white animal and will have to look at another attribute. Recognizing these little details helps a child grow their category knowledge and learn new vocabulary
