Birds are everywhere around us: on the roof, in the garden, near a pond and high in the sky. This free picture dictionary helps your child learn twelve common bird names in English with clear pictures and sounds. Children tap a bird, hear the word spoken slowly and repeat it aloud. Hindi and Telugu names are also given, so families can connect new English words with words the child already knows at home.

It is perfect for preschool and early primary learners who are just starting to build their English vocabulary.

How to play

  1. Tap a bird picture to see its name and hear the word spoken clearly.
  2. Say the word aloud together, then repeat it two or three times.
  3. Scroll through all twelve birds and talk about which ones your child has really seen.
  4. Play the 'Find the Bird' quiz at the end to check what your child remembers.

In this activity your child builds early English vocabulary and learns that birds are one group, or category, of living things. Listening to each word and repeating it supports clear pronunciation, listening skills and word-to-picture matching, which are important first steps towards reading. The Hindi and Telugu names help bilingual children link new English words to language they already use at home. The quiz adds gentle recall practice without pressure. After the activity, step outside and look for a crow, pigeon or sparrow together; naming real birds makes the new words stick far better than screen time alone.

Frequently asked questions

What age is this birds picture dictionary best for?
It works best for children aged three to five who are building first English words. Younger toddlers can enjoy it by simply tapping and listening, while five and six year olds can try spelling the bird names or using them in short sentences.
Which birds are included in this activity?
Twelve common birds are covered: parrot, peacock, crow, duck, hen, owl, eagle, swan, pigeon, penguin, flamingo and sparrow. Most of them are easy for children in India and around the world to spot in gardens, parks, farms or picture books.
Does my child need to read to use this activity?
No reading is needed. Every bird has a picture and a spoken name, so non-readers learn by looking and listening. Children who are starting to read can follow the written word while they listen, which helps them connect sounds with letters.
How can I extend this learning away from the screen?
Go bird-watching near your home and count how many birds you see. Ask your child to draw a favourite bird, imitate its sound, or sort the birds into those that swim, those that fly high and those that live on farms.
