About this app

Designed to be babies and toddlers’ first book app with fun and adorable stories, poems, and musical songs that you can choose to read, or have narrated. These fun books introduce concepts that preschoolers love; reading, coloring, music, dancing, counting, holidays, animals, shapes, nature, family and bedtime. You and your toddler will have fun coloring a rainbow during the day or singing along to a traditional folk song at bedtime. Babybug books will delight your preschooler or toddler with beautifully illustrated stories and poems that come to life in each magazine issue! Babybug digital issues go beyond the printed magazine that you may already read with your preschooler. These books hold extra features, including:

• Links to the Babybug website for insights on child development and suggestions that can help you get the most out of each issue.

• Read-along feature that provides narration of stories, poems, and songs throughout the entire magazine, and a record feature that allows parents to become the narrator.

• Sound effects, music and animations that bring the stories, poems and songs to life!

• Animated Babybug character takes you through each issue

• Fun coloring activities in every issue that let your preschooler color scenes that include animals, nature, shapes, holidays, and more.

• A Sing-along music feature in each issue that’s good for daytime or bedtime.

Babybug is filled with short stories, poems, and preschool songs from today’s budding and well-known children’s writers, as well as traditional nursery rhymes that have stood the test of time.
