Baby Play: Catalogues and Magazines

As a busy mummy I often crave a hot cup of tea

And five minutes with my favourite magazine

Recently I have found that the best way to enjoy that coveted hot cup of tea

Is to give the magazine, or a catalogue, to Bea!

mags1

Bea loves to browse the pages of a periodical

She loves to flick the leaves of a glossy magazine

She likes to coo and gurgle at other babies’ faces

She likes to turn booklets round and round

mags2

She looks at the pictures from every angle

Concentrates with focus as though she is reading words

She grips and flips and turns and pulls and rips apart the pages

She loves what she is looking at

And loves to make a noise

Crunching, scrunching, rustling sounds

What a wonderful sensory experience a magazine can be

A feast for the eyes and ears

A place of exploration for the hands

And, of course, at five months old, the mouth!

relax

Something in common for Bea and me

Me and Bea love magazines!

Do you?

The beautiful pink mat in these photos is a CosyPlay mat which we think is rather fabulous. Read our review here!
