Helped me potty-train my daughter 
2008-07-05
I got this subscription for my daughter when she was 6 months old. She loved them. They're small enough to put in the bathroom, so I would put her on the toilet and we'd read every morning after breakfast. The poems are catchy and the illustrations are interesting so I don't mind reading them over and over again. They are a higher quality than most children's magazines, too, which means my daughter doesn't tear them to shreds.
I would give Babybug four stars if they released an issue every month (12 per year rather than 9), or if they brought the price down to under $30.
My 2 year old niece loves this magazine!

I got a subscription for my 2 year old niece to both Babybug and Animal Baby. According to my brother, Babybug is her favorite! Unfortunately, she lives in another town, so I have not been able to see her reaction to her monthly magazine, but I am assured that she loves it!

It took FOUR months for the magazine to arrive -- a ridiculously long time to wait for a subscription to start. I ordered it two months before my granddaughter's birthday thinking that it was sufficient lead time. I e-mailed and also called numerous times for a status of the order but the subscription customer service desk was very unhelpful.
In all fairness, I must say that the magazine/book is quite good, and my granddaughter enjoys it.
Nice 2008-03-14
We've been receiving Babybug for two years...beginning with my daughter's first birthday. They are quite enjoyable. The stories do start to get very similar after awhile. But then there is always Ladybug.
Great gift idea 2008-03-10
I ordered this magazine for my daughter when she turned one. It has great pictures and short stories and poems, just perfect for short attentions. Now that she is 18 months she likes to try and "read" them to others. She also likes that there is something in the mailbox for her some days.

Babybug begins a lifelong love of books for infants and toddlers 6 months to 2 years. For babies who love to be read to and parents who love to read to them. It's filled with colorful pictures, simple rhymes, and stories that babies and parents will delight in reading together over and over again.
Darling (& expensive) magazine, but enjoyed more by me than by littles ... 2007-07-05
My children (ages 3 and 1) both love books and we're regular library visitors; I thought getting magazines would be a terrific supplement. Well ... thus far I'm the one who's getting the most from the magazines. I don't know if the characters, illustrations, stories, aren't appealing to my children. ??? Of our three subscriptions, the children seem to be most interested in Wild Animal Baby -- not this or Click. (and Click is by far the least favorite) I still think Babybug is cute, albeit expensive (seriously, esp. given my children's [lack of] interest). If I'd known my children's reaction(s), I most likely wouldn't have ordered it.
Wonderful! 2007-04-03
My mom ordered this for my daughter for Christmas. DD, age 2.5, LOVES them! We had considered ordering the Ladybug but several reviews here & other places suggested getting Babybug for that age. I'm glad we did. (We'll get Ladybug when this subscription runs out.) DD asks for these stories every night.
Babybug will develop a love for books 2007-02-15
I gave a Christmas gift subscription to my one year old granddaughter. She loves this "magazine" above all other books. She brings this book to me and sits in my lap and we read it over and over. The illustrations are beautiful, the stories short and interesting to a baby (she's now 14 mos.). The pages are heavy, tear proof paper (not stiff board) and are therefore easier to turn. I'm looking forward to the other issues this year. What a marvelous way to develop a love for reading in your child.
Cute baby magazine/book 2006-11-10
It's cute for young children under two. My 18 month old daughter enjoys me reading the stories, almost every night, there's not many stories in it, but she doesn't seem to mind that. I animate them for her and she thinks it's great. Definitely age appropriate, not too many words per page. A couple pages have been ripped out already but I reglued them to the spine with wood glue, which works great. Now it seems sturdier for her rough play. But the pages themselves are nice and thick so they haven't torn at all. It is smaller than I pictured it though, a little square booklet, but it's been great for us.
