About
My Big World with Clifford is the fun nonfiction magazine for early childhood classrooms. Each issue brings your themes to life with colorful photos and simple nonfiction. In addition, the playful activities focus on early-learning essentials like vocabulary, social development, movement, and language.
My Big World Explores
Your Preschool and Pre-K Thematic Units
Led by Clifford the Big Red Dog, students explore a new seasonal or social development theme in each issue, like fire safety, weather, or manners.
Vocabulary
Grow big vocabularies with key words such as camouflage and tradition.
Social Development
Discussion questions cover core social-development areas for young children, such as being kind and sharing.
Movement
Fingerplays, sign language, and other kinetic learning activities help wiggly kids learn.
Language
Rhyming songs and poems build phonological awareness.
ABC's and Numbering
Make early-childhood learning fun with simple activities that teach letter recognition, counting, patterns, and shapes.
