I had my sons subscribe to it when they were young and used it in my classroom when I taught second grade. It is a very good magazine and helps children learn about animals and the environment. I

Your Big Backyard

As a former pre-kindergarten teacher, I remember this magazine as a great teaching tool and a well used book in the library center...Now that I have a three year old granddaughter, Amelia is receiving this as a birthday gift. I feel this will open her eyes to learning about the world around her as well as encourage Amelia to seek and find information she needs to be a good citizen on Planet Earth.

American Girl

I subscribed to this magazine from around age 7 to age 12, and also got my hands on many back issues during that time.

It is a wonderful, advertising-free magazine with everything from advice, to crafts, to parties (yes, they are kind of heavy on that).

They oftentimes offer excerpts form books from American Girl Press - but they are excerpts which are useful in their own right, not just getting you to buy the book. They are such things as a few crafts out a a craft book, a quiz or two from a quiz book, and that sort of thing. I also highly recommend these books, but that is beside the point.

They interview a lot of girls in special circumstances or doing good for their community, anything from girls to ... Read More:

I love reading and doing the games/puzzles with my 5 and 7 year old. The games actually build spatial and reasoning skills in a non stressful way.

I purchased this for my 11 year old son. the first issue came this week. He said he only had time to skim it but the articles seemed interesting to him and he is looking forward to reading them. I also skimmed throught the first issue and it did seem to be different than anything else I have seen.

Wild Animal Baby

I ordered this magazine for my 2 year old grandson. He is constantly trying to take his big sister's magazines and I thought I had found the perfect solution. The magazine does have "wonderful animal photos, short picture stories and fun activities" like the product description said. However, it is NOT a "board magazine" as claimed. The pages are only as thick as cardstock, a big difference from board books you can buy for toddlers. My grandson loves to read but like any boy he plays rough with his things. If the magazine isn't put up and only looked at with an adult, it won't last long.

Discovery Girls - a Magazine for Girls Ages 8 & Up

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Childrens
from: Discovery Girls


This magazine really is perfect. It features real everyday girls, showing that girls really can do anything. Many people say that it isn't appropriate for an 8 or 9 year old, and not all of it is. But, there are several parts that really would be nice for those younger girls. If you were a parent of a younger girl who was interested in DG (Discovery Girls) I would suggest briefly looking through it before you would give it to her. But, once a girl is about 10 or 11 and they're mature enough it is quite perfect.
DG mostly covers advice about growing up and all of the things that come along with it. If you are looking for crafts and recipes it might not be the best magazine for you. The American Girl Magazine might be better. But, the ... Read More:

Umm. Can't review the product but am frustrated by the delay. Or do they all come at once? Who knows? Amazon has stayed in touch but the actual vendor doesn't seem to be keeping up. My kiddo wants them bad so I hope they are as good as the commercials make them seem!

I purchased this magazine for my great granddaughter. I have already renewed it for the second 9 months. She is delighted with the magazine. Her parents read to her every evening before bedtime and she looks forward to this. It brings parents and child closer.
