These handout photographic illustrations are superbly clear.
When handing it out however, it might be wise to clarify the following statement with the mother.

Unfortunately it states "Six months is the recommended age for weaning babies."

There may be some semantic confusion over the meaning of "weaning" which many might interpret to mean "stopping breastfeeding". It appears however to mean "time to add other food", as the next statement is: "When weaning your baby, carry on breastfeeding (and/or bottle feeding) beyond the first six months." 

All in all though, it appears to be a wonderful source, not only for the sake of the photographic illustrations but especially because it is available in so many different languages!
