Average Rating: 
Rating: - disappointing
We subscribed to this magazine for a year, but I decided one year was enough. Although the photographs were excellent and some of the articles were interesting, they tended to be very short and superficial, even for young children. I did not like the two page "game" from Playhouse Disney which was really a two page advertisement for a television show. I also did not like the stories and the Bonnie and Chester adventures because the animals did not behave like animals, living in houses like people, wearing clothing, and eating cake. I was looking for a magazine that would encourage children to observe nature in their own backyards and help them understand the natural world.
Rating: - If I had to pick just one magazine, this would be it.
If your child is facinated with animals, or likes the outdoors, this is a FANTASTIC magazine for emergent or pre-readers. Very well done, it is crammed with great facts and engaging pictures. When they are old enough, the switch to Ranger Rick is easy since the similar format and excellence in education keep them stimulated and engaged. Magazines are just as useful for promoting literacy as books. In some ways they are even more exciting; a new issue each month has my nephews scrambling to puzzle out the words, and have the stories read to them. After a few short weeks, the glossy magazine is tattered and dogeared, but still holds their interest. If I had to pick just one magazine for young children, this would be it. Great magazine!!!
Rating: - My children's favorite magazine.
I can't think of a better magazine for small children. My children, ages ranging from two to six, go crazy when the magazine arrives each month. Inside are fascinating facts and beautiful photos of the featured animals, a worksheet with instructions on how to draw a particular animal, stories at various reading levels, games, puzzles, mazes, crafts, recipes, a centerfold poster (of the featured animal this month), and galleries of animal-drawings and photographs submitted by readers. As a parent I feel good that my kids are learning about animals and conservation of animal habitats, and that we are supporting the National Wildlife Federation with this magazine subscription.
