T 1 Fahre mit dem Mauszeiger über die 10 ***Wolkenbilder***. Jedes Bild steht für eine Übung. Wenn du dich für eine Übung entschieden hast, klicke auf das entsprechende Bild.

This is from the script for a CD-ROM for children. I imagine it must be a wee picture of a cloud, but is it something specific and if so what is this called in English?

Explanation:
Place the mouse pointer on the 10 pictures of clouds...

I think you're right. There's probably going to be 10 wee pictures of clouds the kids have to place the mouse on.
