Good for a variety of ages
Bought this about 5 years ago when my nieces & nephew were pre-school to middle school age. I recently asked the oldest niece (in high school now) if they had outgrown it and she said they all still read them and even re-read old copies. That sounds a strong endorsement to me!

Good magazine with good content
Started the subscription after looking at this magazine at the local library. The content is just right for the age group with out going overboard. The current edition "Elections around the world" is just in time for US elections and covers various facts pertaining to elections around the works. Loved how they dealt with the topic on Hong Kong protests and how the elections play a role in the process. Previous editions, the sun and the moon, Food, NY are equally good.A must read for upper elementary and middle school children. I ended up recommending to few of my friends and their kids.

I liked it so much that i subscribed to it for ...
I liked it so much that i subscribed to it for 2 of my granddaughters age 12 and 13 and I also got a subscription so that I could talk with them about what it taught. As a social studies teacher by training it is particularly helpful in teaching our young about real living experiences that they can easily relate to. I love Cricket magazines and also have subscribed to the ASK magazine for another and younger granddaughter that VERY inquisitive.

One of the Best
Gorgeous layout with just enough information to keep a tween engaged without overwhelming. My daughter finds interesting articles in every issue and enjoys learning about people throughout the world. Really well done.

Very Good
We bought this for our girls (who are all homeschooled) and they read every single word of it, and proceed to talk about what they have read. The excitement of getting something in the mail beats electronic delivery any day of the week! The food section has been put to good use in our house with our eldest researching the origins of the foods covered, and regional variations of same. She then chooses one of the foods and tries to recreate it. Yum. Good magazine.

Must have!
This is a great and positive addition to our home. Each magazine is different and eye catching. The kids learn about all kids of things they never even kew they were interested in. We like to leave ours on the dining room table for a few days, and we all look through it for a while.

We love that there are no ads
Who knows who is most excited about the arrival of this subscription? Me or my 10 and 13 year-olds? We have saved all of the copies and read them over and over again and find them entertaining and educational. We love that there are no ads! High quality and beautiful!
