They will love these unforgettable moments with you! If you only buy one toddler coloring book, make sure it's this one! I'm Mark and together with my partner Jane we came up with the concept of The Learning Bugs, the fun characters who appear regularly throughout the book. Giggles the ladybug, Squiggles the caterpillar and Zapp the bee are not only entertaining but they engage and ask questions and give your child interesting facts. As parents ourselves we couldn't find a coloring book for young children that we were completely happy with so we decided to create our own. We then conducted research with over 500 fellow parents who helped shape the book you can purchase today. Welcome to the magical world of The Learning Bugs where kids play and have fun while learning at the same time. This will help them throughout their life as they build the habit of being inquisitive and asking questions. Why Buy This Book? Talented artists have hand-drawn unique illustrations that are beautiful but simple, cute and fun. Good value - we made sure to have plenty of pages (over 100). Illustrations are on one side only so you can tear them out to frame and keep. No issues with markers bleeding through the page and ruining an image underneath. Thick black lines for toddlers to try keep within the lines. Each page is a large 8.5 inches by 11 inches and printed on bright white paper. A book for toddlers but with some more advanced elements so the book can be kept for years. Your child will likely treasure this book for years to come. Our fun characters, the Learning Bugs, engage your child while being educational. Helps teach your kids that learning is enjoyable and not a chore. This book will help start to prepare them for school. Teaches the alphabet, they learn the letters and words beginning with that letter. We also have games where they can spot things in the drawing. We also have educational facts about the objects in the lovely drawings. Another game is how many things can you spot - to help with counting. This early learning activity book is aimed at boys and girls aged from 2 to 4 years old (especially toddlers, preschoolers, pre-k and kindergarten kids) but it is suitable for any child up to 6 who loves coloring. We have gone 'above and beyond' to create something special which we are very proud of. This lovingly created ABC coloring book is one you can come back to time and time again. We hope you enjoy this toddler coloring book and be sure to look out for more Learning Bugs books which your child can progress with as they grow. Mark, Jane and Giggles, Squiggles and Zapp (The Learning Bugs)!
