My grandkids love NatGeo Kids

NG kids magazine is the preferred magazine by both my grandsons. They tried others but asked for NGK again.
The ordering process and keeping track of my subscription has been very ea
sy. When one magazine didn't arrive one month, they immediately sent a replacement.

A perfect gift.

It was straightforward ordering National Geographic Kids online and turned out to be an excellent choice of Christmas gift; not only does my 10 year old grandson love receiving and reading the magazine each month, we adults enjoy the photos, easy-to-read information; the very accessible style of the articles, the games and quizzes and no doubt more!

I'd signed up for a good introductory deal with the mentality that I would cancel when it was over but the kids absolutely love what they've started to call the smart pants magazine. You get an email with tips on how to engage with your children as you read along with suggestions for extra activities which is really helpful too.

Still trying to engage screen based kids!

It is not really a fair review as my 7 year grandson is choosing "not to be a reader" at present, despite my encouragement. I enjoy the magazine and have tried several times to engage him and my 9 year old grandson as well.
A sad indictment as I used to be a high school English teacher too.
Any tips and tricks?

Hi Helen, we're glad you're enjoying the magazine even though your grandsons have not connected with it - yet! Many of our subscribers particularly enjoy completing the crossword together as a family, and find that this shared activity sparks conversations and connection. On occasion the answers are revealed within the magazine which may help them engage with the content more. Many thanks, Jade - Nat Geo Kids

We ordered this for our pre-school grandchildren. They loved looking for sticker pages, were interested in learning about the various animals, and we enjoyed the time spent looking through the magazines with them.

The gift that keeps on giving

We absolutely love National Geographic Kids and Little Kids Magazine - it truly feels like a gift that keeps giving. The kids get so excited each month when something arrives in the mail just for them.

The content is always interesting, informative, and genuinely engaging. National Geographic Little Kids is perfect for our 6 yr old - colourful, and easy to follow. National Geographic Kids is ideal for our 9 yr old - it challenges her curiosity and teaches her so much about the world in a fun way.

We especially love how interactive the magazines are. The activities, quizzes, and fun facts make it something we can enjoy together, not just something they read alone. It’s become such a lovely monthly ritual in our home.
