Thank you! I use those too when I can't get something they can touch. They are fascinated by even the pictures. If you can use a color printer when possible it really captures their interest. I have pictures for Hindu gods and the Buddha like the one I have here next to my name. The artistry captures their interest and also teaches them about art styles because they always think it's a girl. I explain to them that art is different in different places, and even though the Buddha may appear effeminate to them, it is not. I could probably do a better job of explaining it to them if I learned a little more about Indian art (so I recently purchased a book on the topic).
