Review | Nat Geo Kids' Little Kids First Big Book series

Type: Hardcover
Age group: 4+
Language: English
Author/Publisher: Nat Geo Kids

If you are wondering what to gift your toddler who has turned 4, then here is the perfect series for them. I recommend this as a parent whose toddler is enjoying every page of the three-book set!
The set comprises of The Little Kids First Book of Animals, The Little Kids First Book of Why and The Little Kids First Book of Space. Each book has the power to raise the curiosity of young minds. All these books whet the curiosity and answers all the questions that kids get at this age.

The first book is all about animals living in the Grassland, Ocean, Desert, Forest and Polar animals. It contains more than 200 incredible fun photos and facts on animals. The best part are the questions at the end of each chapter and a few tips for parents while reading the book.

The second book is an amazing trip into space. Kids get transported to their Universe and solar system. Nearly 100 beautiful illustrations and photographs interspersed with simple read-it-aloud text helps engage a rather busy toddler.  Each chapter has questions that invoke curiosity in every young mind.

The third book aptly named Why answers the smallest questions arising in children's minds, ranging from "why are some animals so big and so small?' to "why does my skin wrinkle in the tub?" and a myriad others.

The best part about these books is that they are a treasure chest of knowledge compiled at the most basic level by the Nat Geo Kids team who painstakingly put together all illustrations and photographs. This is one collection to be cherished forever!

All in all, a perfect gift for kids aged 4+.

Hug and Kiss ‘em & Hold ‘em close to you!

From the moment I conceived, it was my fantasy to have a super tactile bond with my child after he/she would be born (for the longest possible time, I felt it would be a girl!). After my son was born, things became different and the first three months were extremely painful feeding him or holding him thanks to my C-section stitches. So all maternal feelings vanished into thin air and all I could think was sleep or having “me-time”.  There was hardly a chance to cuddle up with him! Post partum depression had hit me big time and me not being able to calm down a screaming infant had dipped my morale too. Motherhood was nothing like I had imagined it would be! Besides I was terrified that my son would not accept me if I didn’t develop a bond early on. Of course, that did not happen. It was a mom’s fear that had spoken. After he entered the infamous toddler phase, I became the quintessential “villain” for my son – the usual don’t do this and that. Yet again, my dreams of becoming...

Barnes & Noble expands Nook Free Fridays with apps, free games

In a bid to boost their popularity in the e-reader market, retailers are expanding their Nook Free Fridays offer. Till now, readers could download a different paid Nook Book for free, every Friday. The latest expansion offers free applications too, apart from the free e-book. The book retailer is hoping to cash in on the application fad so that keep customers will keep re-visiting the Nook application store and download books and other applications. It is expected to be more of a ‘trial run’ to increase rapport between Nook and its platform, the Android operating system. The Nook’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/nook) and blog (www.nook.com/blog) will display free content based on gaming and entertainment, which will be available each week. ‘We are thrilled to offer NOOK customers a variety of exciting apps from top developers for free every week,’ said Claudia Romanini, VP of NOOK Apps, NOOK Media, LLC. ‘NOOK Free Fridays is the perfect way to highlight our vast offering of...

Choose the right monitor for your PC...

How many of you have read computer monitor reviews before buying one? Do you compare prices of computer monitors on websites? A large percentage of people have been found to do extensive surveys before making a purchase of the device. But what about those who haven’t done? Reviews of any gadget or device give a detailed insight on its resolution, dimensions, image quality, price, colors, camera (if it’s a mobile phone or a tablet) and finally the market ratings. Similarly, a computer monitor is a vital component of a PC or personal computer. Without the monitor, the computer is incomplete. So once you read computer monitors reviews, you are less likely to make a wrong choice while choosing between a Samsung or Dell monitor. First, check what type of monitor you want. This is because each brand specializes in providing different types of monitors. For instance, there are seven types of Samsung computer monitors available. Samsung offers a wide range of computer monitors like LCD, L...
