Question

DOES anyone know if theres anyt magazines for children or just educational home mailings? I homeschool a child

i just want to know if theres any free kids educational things i can get trough the mail?

Answer 1

You did not say what ages the kids are.

Focus on the Family has several magazines for kids.

Answer 2

i love highlights i got them when i was a kid they were great

Answer 3

The Old Schoolhouse magazine that the first responder posted is *not* free and it's *not* for kids.

You can get all sorts of free educational materials through the mail from government offices:  U.S. Mint, FDA, Forestry dept, Federal Reserve Bank, etc.  Also state and local agencies give these out.  I just rec'd a huge box from our state's Dept. of Natural Resources - and 22 awesome, huge posters.

As for magazines, there are a lot of kids' magazines.  Our favorites are Kids Discover, Highlights, and Odyssey.  All magazines have subscriptions.  We get National Geographic (not the kids' version - I can't stand it) for $12 with the educator price.

The *best* place to get "free" magazines is to check them out at your library.  Our librarian says those they have do not get enough circulation; he'd like to see more kids reading them.

If you do a 'net search for something like "free teaching tools" or "free educator materials", you'll come up with a lot of hits.

Answer 4

Most of the free kids stuff that I get (magazines, posters, games) come from Government agency websites. Search for ones by subject such as Weather, Recycling, etc.

We also get a free Lego magazine once per month for my son.

Also, from Learning Resources I get a free publication about 3 times each year. In there is a card to send of for lots of free educational info that kind of dominoes into more as you send for one then, then another.

Answer 5

well, i searched for those magazines on google, and i found a good magazine you can subscribe to for your kids. i hope this helps!
