I subscribe to the Kids Nat Geo for my Grandchildren

I subscribe to the Kids Nat Geo for my 7-year old twin grandchildren who live back in the UK. It's an annual subscription gift that they really enjoy.
I know that each month at least, they think of their old grandpappy here in France.

National Geographic Little Kids

What a fabulous magazine for little people! I share this magazine with my 3 year old Grandson and he loves it, the articles are well written and use language that is easily understood and includes new words and language to extend his vocabulary. The pictures and general layout are outstanding. He particularly loves the stickers, the spot the difference and the articles about familiar animals. Actually he loves the whole thing!! Highly recommend this to anyone who has an inquisitive little person in their life.
PS I've learnt a few things myself along the way and it is cheap for the value.

Grandson and Ma

My nearly 9 year old grandson loves all the information in the magazines and he keeps the puzzles for my weekly visit so we can do them together.
He likes the variety of the content, the different places in the world and the information.

A monthly treat for my Grandchild

My Grandchild absolutely loves National Geographic and is always telling me about things she has read in it. This is her 3rd year of receiving it and it is always a treat when it arrives by post. Thank you. I've seen her brother reading it too!

Excellent Publication for Kids

Bringing their world to life

My youngest granddaughters love their National Geographic magazines and eagerly await the next delivery of amazing facts, jokes, stunning images, quizzes and fun activities. They are incredibly environmentally aware and enjoy finding out about the many different creatures across the world in very different climates.
Both are now avid readers with astonishing knowledge about the world and great vocabularies for their age. These magazines are probably
the best investment I could have made in their futures in these environmentally challenging times.

Excellent content and customer service

Been a subscribed for both my kids for almost a year now. Great customer service when reaching out. Firstly the magazines were being delivered in the rain and hence sometimes they came completely soaked. After contacting them they sent me out new copies and also took on board the feedback (I assume from many people) and now deliver in a biodegradeable water proof bag.

I had also some administrative issues with the account and the delivery name and got immediate replies and help to resolve my issue.

Very pleasant interactions as well as quick responses (very surprised!)

National Geographic is amazing

It’s a great magazine for kids who love reading, learning and doing puzzles and games. My 8yo loves it especially the weird but true facts and the animal stories.

Not just for kids - this adult enjoys it too!

Nat Geo Kids is not only for kids...as an adult, I find many things that are interesting to me within its pages! It's a wonderful resource for everyone, but particularly younger people, as it's accessible, colourful and full of educational info presented in a fun way!

Growing Interest in Natural World

My 12 year old daughter loves when Nat Geo arrives. She flicks through to check it all out, then does the puzzles, before settling in to read the articles. She re-reads them and has decorated her bedroom with all the animal posters.

I love that she is finding the natural world interesting and exciting. She is talking about being a marine biologist. Nat Geo is feeding her growing interest. Thank you.

A Wonderful Gift Idea

I bought a subscription of National Geographic Kids for my grandchild, who is only 8 years old and very bright. He absolutely loves it and waits for delivery each month. I have a feeling we will be subscribing for many years to come! Keep up the good work.
