Patty-cakes, patty-cakes.
Papa picks her up and holds her.
Read the poem and talk about how the girl looks when Papa
picks her up and swings her. Does she look happy? Then ask
your child if he would like you to flip him on your shoulder.
If he says yes, enjoy acting this out with your little one.
Papa swings her high and low
And flips her on his shoulder!

Saturday’s my favorite day.
’Cause that’s when Nana comes.
After reading the story, help your child look on each
page for the puppet Nana brought. Turn to the cover
to find the puppet again. Then pull out a sock and
make and play with your own puppet.

She calls me Honey Bun.
We laugh and play.
We eat.
We read. It’s fun when Nana comes!
Read Me a Poem
Look
What
Mommy
Found!
By Rikki B. Romerez
Jilly-jelly belly button,
Hiding in your middle.
When you read, point to
your baby’s belly button.
Then read the poem
again and say a different
body part, such as knee
or nose. Don’t worry
about making the poem
rhyme. Your child will
enjoy the sound of your
voice and the tickles.

Highlights Hello Magazine was introduced in December 2012. This magazine for babies and toddlers targets children ages 0–2 years old. Highlights announced that this magazine, which is offered in several packages is designed specifically for babies.
Laughter and Learning
Each Hello magazine follows a theme such as Sounds, Food or Farm Animals, that helps young children make sense of their world. Every issue is filled with colorful images, whimsical read-aloud stories, poems and simple activities that make babies giggle, laugh and learn. You’ll also find word play, games and lots of silly fun.
Babies love to look at other babies, so Hello also features plenty of photos of happy faces and little ones laughing and playing. Plus, our read-aloud stories are just the right length for even the youngest ones’ attention spans.
Thoughtfully Designed
Hello is the perfect size for little hands to hold and to fit into a diaper bag or purse. It’s also baby-safe, made of a tear-resistant, washable material with rounded corners and a stitched — not stapled — binding. For extra safety, Hello is mailed in an envelope that keeps it germ-free while it’s on its way to your home.
You’ll love watching your special little one get excited with every turn of a page. Best of all, time spent laughing, playing and reading Hello will help baby to make positive connections between reading and fun.
