Favourites Magazine
A Firm Favourite for us Both
I am starting to think that I am way too soft on my daughter, though one little sweet grin and the flicker of her long eyelashes and I give in so easily. I always said that at her age of only two, I would buy perhaps one magazine a month if that, though my daughter loves reading books and magazines and enjoys drawing, craft and stickers so at least magazines get well used, and I cut out the unused parts at the end and put them into a scrapbook for the car or restaurants so they don?t go to waste.
Usually my daughter tends to go for the Peppa Pig or Dora magazines, so when we saw this magazine with both of these inside it plus more, we thought we would give it a try.
Although the layout on all the ?Favourites? magazines are the same with different content, I am basing this review ...

Advantages: Plenty of choice. Disadvantages: Not all cartoons are well known.
Due to my daughters extensive dvd collection i will attempt to write another review, this time on this rather marvellous dvd.
The children's favourites bumper special dvd is a compilation dvd of 10 different cartoons. Featured on this single disc edition are,
Barney - TREE-mendous trees,
Learn about the importance of trees, their different shapes and sizes, and about the animals that live in them!!
This is by no means my favourite as i'm really freaked out by the prospect of a 6 foot purple dinosaur!!! However my 2 year old son adores him, especially the i love you song played at the end (which is my favourite part ... the end!!!!)
Pingu - Pingu and the seagull,
Pingu is plagued by a mischievous seagull, however, the seagull soon gets into a spot of bother and requires some aid....
I love pingu and have done for years ...
