Average Rating:
 Rating:  - UnbelievableA 50-page children's magazine literally half ads. And the articles are either about a movie or can be understood by parents to help relieve some of the blatancy of the magazine's real purpose. In the issue we just got it was Nintendo DS on the pedestal. If you get sidetracked thinking about mountain lions or something, a nice summary near the end of the magazine reminds young readers unabashedly of all the, I quote, "must-haves of the season." Perfect gift for transforming youth into ... Read More Rating: - It should be called National AdvertisingNational Geographic should be ashamed of themselves. The only thing that any kid perusing this magazine would learn is what toys they do NOT have. Are there any articles related to nature, to different cultures, and to different places? No!!! Please do not waste your money on this magazine. Subscribe to National Geographic for Little Kids which is different from this shameful magazine. Rating:  - Too many adverts: National Geographic should be embarrassed!I'm giving this 2 (versus 1) stars because my daughter likes it (her aunt bought it for her). There are jokes and maybe a few puzzles. And a hidden article or two. But, I cannot overemphasize how many ads this has---and they aren't that distinguishable from the main text, either. We deliberately keep her away from Disney channel and shows with commercials, and yet suddenly at dinner she will start discussing a movie or toy we have not even heard of. Where did she get the info.? National Geographic. ... Read More Rating:  - kids magazineGrandkids love this magazine and read all the articles. They anxiously await the next issue. Great learning tool. Rating: - Advertising in the form of a magazineWe received our first issue of National Geographic Kids today and promptly cancelled it the same day. I didn't even want my son to see it. Not only is it filled with advertising but the "science" articles are unsophisticated and tabloid-ish. I wish we had read the reviews before ordering. We assumed that this would be comparable to World Magazine and were terribly wrong. Browse for similar items by category:
