Find an image in Google

Sometimes it is easy to find the information that you need to do research for a child’s project. But sometimes it is hard to find just the right picture to go along with the text. Well, not anymore!

Most of the popular search engines now include a search for just images. Here is how you would use it.

Go to a search engine – enter the type of image that you are looking for. Make sure you select that you are looking for images.

The search engine will return a list of thumbnails for you to view. If you see an image that you like, then click on that image. It will take you to the full size version of the image. Then you can right click on the image, go to Save Image As, and then save it to your PC. Then you can paste that image into a document, a presentation, burn it to a CD or use it for other things.

It’s an easy way to help add that special touch to your child’s project. It’s also a great way to simply enjoy interesting pictures with your child.
