Highlights starts magazine for preschoolers
Filed under: Toddlers Preschoolers, Preschoolers, Day Care & Education, That's Entertainment
Highlights Magazine, the magazine of choice for the well-read child in the doctor's office waiting room, is now opening up shop for the preschool set. Highlights High Five, the newest (and possibly only) magazine aimed at kids from two to six-years-old, will debut next month.
Sections include "Eating Glue Around the World," "Funny Things I Fed the Dog" and "Will It Really Fall Off: Debunking Parenting Lies."
Besides the hidden picture section featured in the original magazine, Highlights High Five will also feature fiction stories, puzzles, crafts and activities for younger children. The goal of the magazine is to "stimulate children's social and emotional growth, ability to reason and think creatively, and acquisition of language skills."
No news if Dora the Explorer or DeeDee Doodlebop will grace the cover in bikinis.

Matthew Miller said...Certainly not the first -- the publishers of Cricket Magazine make "Ladybug" for ages 2-6, and science-oriented "Click" for ages 3-7. They also produce "Babybug" (on heavier drool-and-tear-resistant paper) for ages 6 months to 3 years.
And the National Wildlife Foundation (makers of Ranger Rick) also make "Your Big Backyard" for ages 3-7 and "Wild Animal Baby" for ages 1-4.

Patty said...Nickjr also publishes one that my 2 year old loves with images and games of Blues Clues, Dora and other well known Nickjr characters. Last month included a poster of the Backyardigans group that now graces the family room wall. Quite a few decent ones can be found in the larger chain bookstores such as Borders. This is good info though as I wondered why Highlights did not offer a younger version for toddlers.

Jenn said...There's also "Turtle" and "Sesame Street" magazines aimed at preschoolers. My kids love Sesame Street mag, but you have to subscribe to Parenting to get it. They have lots of activities and games that a 4 year old can actually *do* by themselves or with little help.
