FIDO AND PUMPKIN POSITION PICTURES

Have fun with Fido and Pumpkin creating your own position pictures!

There are two scenes to choose from: the beach or the garden. Pick a scene, then choose a position word to illustrate. There are 51 colourful items to drag and drop onto the background making the possibilities endless! Any unwanted objects can be dragged to the trash before constructing and recording a sentence to match the picture. Save the picture and recording, to enjoy at a later date with friends and family; just click the camera and send the picture to your pin-board!
