Would have been 5 stars
My Grandaughter likes the publication, but I was never able to get it sent to her. It always came to me in another state, so I had to priority mail them to her. Nice magazine but wasn’t able to get the customer service.

One of the Best Kids Magazines.
I'm a teacher and a mom and this is one of the better magazines out there. The quality of the writing is much higher than in others kids magazines. I use this for language arts in my classroom.

Quality Publication
I read this magazine when I was a kid and picked it up again for nostalgia. I was not disappointed! Still the same great material. Informative and fun for girls and boys. I had forgotten about "Old Cricket Says..." on the last page which had always been my favorite part. Brought a smile to my face to see him and the other characters again.

Amazing magazine - well worth the money
Although the target audience is stated to be 8-12 year old, my seven year old is completely fascinated with this magazine. She has thanked me countless times for the subscription and looks forward to each month with anticipation. Not only are the stories lively and entertaining, they are educational as well (I am also learning various things about history and culture that I did not know before!). There is a good mix of fiction and non fiction stories as well as poetry. Since receiving this magazine, I have noticed her excelling more at reading comprehension and her own story writing skills. These reasons are why I believe it is well worth the money and I wll be renewing our subscription for a very long time.

Only received 1 magazines 3 months late
The magazine itself is good, interesting stories in the world. But I only received one magazine and in 3 months late. It is $30 for one magazine is too pricey

My kids Love Cricket Periodicals
Both of my kids love reading this magazine. My son really enjoys reading and will read them cover to cover and looks forward to the next arrival. My daughter picks the stories she find interesting and reads those.

Great magazine for grandkids.
I went on vacation to see my grandkids and this was the first thing my granddaughter brought to me to read. She said she does all the projects and puzzles in the magazine and can't wait for each issue to come so she can do it again.

A Prefect Gift for School kids.
My middle school granddaughter loves this magazine. She shares it with her friends, so it helps more than just one person. She is a straight A student and a leader in her group of friends. This makes a super gift for school kids. I have bought magazine subscriptions for her since she began 1st grade. It trellis a gift that "keeps on giving".
