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.In that process of looking for good kids magazines we tried out a bunch of them, and got subscriptions to most. Here's my quick quick rundownKids Discover: heavy on pictures, light on words. The articles tend to be little snippets and factoids without context or much explanation.National Geographic Kids: heavy on pictures, light on the words. Articles are a bit more in depth than Kids Discover.Time for Kids: Thin and a bit flimsy, but comes frequently (every two weeks?) and covers major current events pretty well. Different versions are available for different ages. Order it from the Time for Kids web site since Amazon doesn't seem to carry it.Dig: In depth interesting articles addressing history and society under the guise of archeology. Probably best for late elementary and middle school, and/or more thoughtful kids.Ask and Muse: In depth interesting articles addressing all sorts of thoughtful topics. Probably best for late elementary and middle school, and/or more thoughtful kids.

Excellent Science Magazine
I am continually impressed with the Cricket magazine family. We get 4 of them in total now but have had many different magazines from their portfolio. Ask is at the top of the list for me. I love that it is science based and has hands on projects for kids to do. I also appreciate the lack of advertising in the magazine. Of note: the printing, pictures, and paper are all of high quality. These can be kept for a long time and reread many times without them falling apart.

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.

8yo loves this magazine
My son pours over this magazine and keeps it with him until he has gone through it several times. It's opened up many great questions and also encouraged him to further research some of the topics. Really happy with this subscription.
