5.0 out of 5 stars If I had to pick just one magazine, this would be it., October 8, 2002

By	M. Ahrens "maggieliz" (York PA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

If your child is facinated with animals, or likes the outdoors, this is a FANTASTIC magazine for emergent or pre-readers. Very well done, it is crammed with great facts and engaging pictures. When they are old enough, the switch to Ranger Rick is easy since the similar format and excellence in education keep them stimulated and engaged.

Magazines are just as useful for promoting literacy as books. In some ways they are even more exciting; a new issue each month has my nephews scrambling to puzzle out the words, and have the stories read to them. After a few short weeks, the glossy magazine is tattered and dogeared, but still holds their interest.

If I had to pick just one magazine for young children, this would be it. Great magazine!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars My children's favorite magazine., January 9, 2003

By A Customer

I can't think of a better magazine for small children. My children, ages ranging from two to six, go crazy when the magazine arrives each month. Inside are fascinating facts and beautiful photos of the featured animals, a worksheet with instructions on how to draw a particular animal, stories at various reading levels, games, puzzles, mazes, crafts, recipes, a centerfold poster (of the featured animal this month), and galleries of animal-drawings and photographs submitted by readers. As a parent I feel good that my kids are learning about animals and conservation of animal habitats, and that we are supporting the National Wildlife Federation with this magazine subscription.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for your animal loving pre-schooler!, December 1, 2001

By A Customer

My 4-year-old son has been receiving this magazine for over a year now and we read each issue again and again. He loves the beautiful photos of animals and has learned so many animal facts. The magazine includes photo spreads with facts, games, art projects, mazes, rhebus stories, and a two-page poster each month. I've found Your Big Backyard to be educational and entertaining and consider it a must-have magazine for any child who loves animals and the outdoors!
