This paper aims at exploring the impact of images or photographs on young learners when they attempt to learn a foreign language in KSA. Traditionally books are most common teaching materials that we find being used in the classrooms across the globe. With the passage of time, language specialists discovered that learning a foreign language becomes easier and smoother if some psychological aspects are considered while young learners are taught. Young learners do not admire or appreciate a highly disciplined classroom teaching environment rather they welcome fun activities in the classroom. So teachers can seize the opportunity and capitalize it when they teach young children in KSA.This paper found that images help learners learning a foreign language more easily and efficiently
