Storybox or Beano?
Over the last week I’ve been working through a “Beano Replacement” book for my 4 year old son called “Storybox” and I have to say I’ve been pleasantly surprised.
The book is rather educational with little facts that his sponge like brain absorbed with relative ease.
If he’s learning something while being well behaved I guess that’s a bonus! 
I’d say that I prefer the Beano, but it seems that my tastes differ from my son as he really likes the book!
I guess I’ll have to persuade the ball and chain to get the next Storybox issue when it’s out (she can still keep getting the Beano for me!).
Kids Monthly Books
Today I’m focusing on kids magazines. Having been a trusty supporter of the British culture gem that is the Dandy and the Beano for some years (as it was the staple weekly supplement that my parents got me when I was young) I was a bit apprehensive when “the other half” got some of the magazines from her work for the Kids.
So she’d got hold of one of Bayard Presse’s range of books called “Storybox” that are apparently good for our 4 year old.
I had a quick flick through it and it’s got a lot of activities and things in it. We’ll be checking it out over the week so i’ll let you know how we get on.
