BABYBUG starts your child on the lifelong adventure of reading!
Full of the highest-quality content available from the world's best children's writers and artists, BABYBUG has delighted little ones since 1994. The joyful, brightly-illustrated stories and poems are perfect for parents and grandparents to read aloud, while the extra-heavy pages, non-toxic ink, rounded corners, and staple-free binding make BABYBUG safe for little ones to explore on their own. A "Guide for Caregivers" on the last page offers read-aloud tips and child development insights to help you get the most out of each issue.
Each 24-page issue of BABYBUG includes:
- Advertising-free simple stories and rhymes
- Kim and Carrots serial follows the adventures of a toddler and a trusty stuffed bunny
- Let's Explore investigates baby's world with photos
- A First Concept takes a playful look at a simple idea
- Traditional rhymes and Mother Goose favorites
- Picture find, action rhyme with motions, song with online audio, and much, much more!
