Interesting, thoughtful articles for kids who are interested and willing My elementary age kids are just beginning to understand the larger scope of the world and human knowledge. While in the process of looking for good magazines about current events I came across Ask, Muse and Dig. I signed up for a subscription to Ask in hopes that it would help my kids get that better understanding of the world of ideas. We’ve been quite pleased with it.
Great Mag for young readers and teachers I purchased this for my daughter (10 yrs old) birthday. She was so excited when she received the 1st copy. She read cover to cover and while eating dinner had to quiz me on my knowledge…I believe it was truly an attempt to let me know that I “done know everything”. Our fist copy had an article about clouds and she just learned this in school… she was about to pass up the article stating “I already know this stuff” when something caught her eye and she ask if she could bring it to her teacher at school. I would recommend this to any child/teacher as a gift. Very rewarding as it is harder and harder to purchase something other than movies/video games for the pre-teen era.
Asking Yourself, Is It Worth It ?.. Pay it Forward Yes, the subscription is worth the price. If you don’t have a child of your own, BUY a subscription for your local school or library or youth club. Then pat yourself on the back for inspiring young minds to think, to write, to draw and dream.
