Children’s Book Gift Guide
Nat Geo Valentines Books
If your family loves books as much as mine, you will love these new Nat Geo valentines books that make a perfect gift for the holiday and beyond.
Books are a great way to show someone you care, so I often give and receive them.
While reading is important at any age, it is especially important to encourage a love of reading from a young age.
When you do, this good habit can lead to an enjoyable lifetime of reading and learning.
National Geographic Kids is known for their high quality books that engage children with captivating images and fascinating text.
These three new books fit right in with the Nat Geo family of books.
We Love Babies is recommended for little ones ages 2 to 5, but people of all ages will enjoy these adorable baby animals.
The other two books are recommended for bigger kids ages 8 to 12.
Kids will be entertained for hours and hours, since there are so many entertaining and interesting facts in these books.
Happy Valentine’s Day to you and your family!

I’ve bought some of the National Geographic books for kids and the photographs are beautiful. They do a good job of not overwhelming early readers with too much text. I wouldn’t have thought of the history of music for a children’s book. Also, the book is hardback, according to your post. I’ve only seen the kid’s books of theirs in paperback.

National Geographic books are the *best*
My youngest girl loves animals & dinos, and my oldest loves music, so these would be great additions to our shelf. My girls have always loved books. Since Nana (the hub’s mom) is an English professor & published author, we were reading to the girls at a very young age. From the beginning they loved the colorful pictures & snuggling in & listening to a story. My oldest had a speech delay so we were worried that she would be always be behind her classmates. Now she is in Kindergarten & reading level C books! My heart is happy, & I’d love to share these books with them. Hoping to win, of course, but adding these to my Amazon wish list just in case :)
