Excellent starter magazine for kids May 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Along with Ladybug, another Cricket Publications magainze for kids, Click is best in its class for 2 to 6 year olds. Where Ladybuy is largely fantasy, fables, fairy tales and loose play, Click is more pragmatic. Each issue has a theme on some worldly issue or basic knowledge. For example one recent feature focuses on recognizing and understanding the value of money. Another on the recycling. If that seems dry to you, don't fret, each theme is playfully introduced through cartoons and kid-friendly devices such as cut-out projects and picture association games. Recurring features such as "Yo Wants to Know", "Click and the Kids" and "Beatrice Black Bear" helps excite kids to look forward to and identify with regular characters and themes. No less important, no annoying ads. Highly recommended.
Escaping the tyranny of commercialism May 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We have been happy subscribers to Cricket magazines from our first issue of Babybug. Now that he's five, my son treasures his subscription to Click and reads it cover to cover the minute it arrives. The magazine is informative, enjoyable, and fun--the articles feature a well-balanced mix of topics, the illustrations are varied and clever, and the writing is top-notch. All of this is apparent to any one who glances through an issue of the magazine.
What's just as wonderful about Click to me is its ability to create a world totally apart from the general realm of children's media. Not only is this world imaginative and stimulating, it is also completely free of the overbearing commercialism that dominates the everyday culture of children. No brand names, no licensed characters, no endless encouragements to consume.
I am a mom trying to raise children who are curious, creative, and capable of pursuing a wide range of interests. Click supports them in all of this, and it does so by clearing a space where they can truly be themselves.
Kid-friendly, parent-approved July 13, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Click is one of the best magazines out there for the 4 to 6 year old age group. Great photos, great articles that explain interesting themes in a simple, concrete, but never patronizing way, and lovely complementary cartoons.
Best of all, there are NO ADVERTISEMENTS. Yup. Just pure reading pleasure for you and your kids.
Not so hot July 7, 2007 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
My kids, who are 3, 6 and 9, and all huge science/nature lovers, have just not gotten into this magazine at all. They LOVE the Ranger Rick/Backyard issues they also receive, as well as some other kid magazines like Amer Girl and SI Kids, but the youngest two refuse to even pause to look through Click. Not sure why, since all the other reviews here are so positive...
Yeah, what they said. Plus.... October 1, 2004 26 out of 26 found this review helpful
...once you tear out the subscription cards, there are no ads (unless you count one unobtrusive one buried in the publisher's information, telling you how to renew your subscription or order a slipcase).
Each issue includes a tear-out activity...a craft or game related to that issue's theme.
The cast of characters is fairly diverse with various races represented. And if you like your child's reading material to be secular, this magazine fits the bill.
My 4 year old and I look forward to each issue...it's a little expensive for 9 issues, but it's worth it!
