Highlights Kids
Highlights Kids is an online learning platform which is the counterpart to the Highlights magazine. This website features writing and reading based scientific yet artistic activities. Children are able to browse more than 45 science experiments, recipes, and instructions for more than 40 craft projects. Children are also able to access more than a dozen online art activities and view videos of other kids telling jokes. There are word searches, hidden pictures and other games available on Highlights Kids. A cool feature that kids are able to use is to be able to submit content of their own such as jokes and drawings to be featured in the print magazine.
The abundance of activities that Highlights Kids has to offer helps to keep children occupied while also providing an educational component. Some of the virtual art projects allow kids to create funny faces out of food and customize buildings. The science experiments provided offer great explanations on concepts such as gravity, how visions works, and much more. Kids do not need a subscription to Highlights' print magazine in order enjoy the online platform.
