BabyBug is a series of magazines by Carrus publishers shipped 9 months of the year . It is for children from birth to 3 years old and contains classic nursery rhymes ,new stories and very vivid picture scenes from these stories . I have used this with all of my Grandchildren and they are all now avid readers . I began when they were 3 or 4 months old showing them pictures in the magazine and reading the shorter poems and progressed to whole book as the child got older and more aware .
They are thick paperback and I still have some that are 3 and 4 years old . They have survived being handled by toddlers . My 4 year old Grandson will still pull some of them from the bookshelf and want me to read them to him again . He is now beginning to learn site words and these are good for him to pick out the words in them he already can recognise. I would recommend a subscription to all Grandparents because children love it when they come to your house and find they have a new book or magazine in the mail. It may be a little pricey at over $ 34 or $ 35 for 9 issues but enjoyment and vocabulary factor that these teach or reinforce makes me believe they are well worth the money . If after a while you find you do not wish to keep the older isues you can give them to hospitals to use on their Pediatric Wards .
