We love looking at cute pictures of baby animals and their mums and to celebrate Mother's Day this year, we've picked a selection of our favourites.
We’ve put together our cutest pictures of baby animals and their mums ready for Mother’s Day. From biological mums to adopted babies, from elephants to tiny mice, families come in all shapes and sizes and when a new addition arrives, the special bond between mother and baby is strong no matter what the species.
So if you’re in the mood for some serious ‘ooing’ and ‘awwing’, have a flick through these cute pictures of baby animals and their mums with the kids and enjoy!
Happy Mother’s Day from the goodtoknow team!

Come here, you!
‘Honest mum, I’m ok, you don’t have to try and look after me all the time!’

You’re just so cute – I can’t get enough of you!
‘Mummmmm, put me down, I was trying to have my afternoon nap!’

Give us a squeeze
‘Awwww mum, you are the best cuddler in the whole wide world!’

That’s a lovely look!
‘You, my baby, are the cutest pup I could have ever dreamed of!’

The morning after the night before
‘Mummy, come and play with me! Get up. I want to play – NOW!’

The dreaded ‘B’ word
‘Ooh mum, do we have to have a bath?’

Meeting the family
‘Now, hold his head… Hold his head, have you got him?!’

First day of school
‘See you later, sweetie. Have a nice day at school!’

Bed time
‘Goodnight, my little babies. Sleep tight. Don’t let the bed bugs bite!’

In the middle of the shopping centre
‘Mmm… I just love your baby smell. I don’t want it to ever go!’
‘Mum, leave me alone… you’re messing up my hair!’

Nap time
‘Mmmm… sweet dreams, darling.’

Outside the school gates
‘Mum… mum… mum… MUM!’

Play time in the park
‘Mum, what are we doing today? Tell me, tell me, tell me!’

Swimming lessons
‘Mum, I don’t want to get in the water yet it’s too cold! I’m just going to stay here for a little while.’

After school time
‘Mum! Mum! Spikey won’t let me watch TV, he’s hogging the remote! Do something!’

Snuggle fest
‘Maybe now I’ll get some peace and quiet!’

Scary night time
‘Mummy, mummy I’m scared… what is that horrible monster?’
‘Don’t worry, babies, it’s just a human. Stay still for the camera and it’ll be on its way!’

The next door neighbours are back
‘Don’t worry, stay behind mama – they won’t dare mess with me!’

Baby’s first steps
‘Go on, you can do it, little one. A foot at a time. That’s it!’

Dinner time
‘Ok, you lot, calm down – one at a time please!’

Learning to talk
‘Are you ready? … Bark! Bark! See I told you I could do it!’

Play time vs nap time
‘Mummy, come on – we want to play!’

A mother’s love
‘Did you wash under your arms? Oh yes you did – good boy, give mamma a big kiss now!’

Time for bed!
‘See I told you this bed was so much comfier than ours!’

Embarrassing mum
‘Sweetie, you’ve got something on your face… right… right there!’

Fun with mum
‘Go faster, go faster! Woo!’

Snack time
‘Cor, that should keep them quiet for a while…’

Too tired to play
‘Mum, mum, mum – wake up, wake up!’

Sleepy heads
‘Too… tired… to… move.’

Impatient zebra
‘Mum, when is Dad coming home from work? He’s taking so long!’

Learning to walk
‘Come on then you three, keep up with me – heel, toe, heel, toe…’

Frisky cubs
‘Mum, look at that – can we chase it? Please, please, please?!’

Sunbathing in the park
‘Mum, I just love the sunshine. I feel like I want to get up and run around and sing and be merry and…’
‘Just please stop talking, I’m trying to have a power nap!’

Game time!
