Usually the agenda must contain pictures so that it influences the child's interest. Picture agendas/books are considered to be more able to motivate children to learn because picture agendas are presented with text and illustrations or pictures, are easy to use, can clarify a problem, can help with supervision and observation, and are more realistic.
