Awards And Honors For Our Magazines
Our focus on the highest quality writing and commitment to never carry any ads in our magazines has earned us every major award in North America.
In 2010, all 14 of our titles were honored by the Parents' Choice Foundation - more than any of our competitors. According to the Parents' Choice committee, winning products "entertain and teach with flair, stimulate imagination and inspire creativity ... [winning products] help a child grow in many ways: socially, intellectually, emotionally, ethically, and physically."
The awards are determined by a panel of educators, scientists, artists, librarians, parents, and kids and they are designed to provide parents reliable, unbiased information about quality products. Over 80% of the total items submitted each year do not receive commendation.
