Our Take

My daughter is growing up so fast, I cannot believe that she is already eight years old, in third grade and reading up a storm… What happened to my little baby, it is amazing how fast time flies! We were very fortunate to be able to check out the latest issue of the American Girl magazine the special December 2013  issue, with this issue they are celebrating winter and the cover contest winners!  I was excited to check it out (yes I am just a kid at heart) with my daughter. My daughter just loved flipping through the magazine,(she did more than flip though.. she read the entire magazine!) There were so very many things she loved in the magazine.

 She loved the various activities. And I loved that this magazine was age appropriate, it was filled with great info and things tweens like my daughter will love. The magazine helps boost self-esteem for these young ladies, you are special and we know it. It encourages the kids to be imaginative and creative. My daughter just loves art and this magazines crafts speak to her, and she can’t wait to try them. This is not a one and done magazine, after my daughter read through the magazine she picked it up over and over to check it out again and again.

This was a very special issue, that came with some great holiday goodies some fun stickers and an adorable 2014 calender. My daughter of course went and hung this cute animal calender in her room right away.  There were some great recipes and fun in this magazine. America Girl shared some great magazine facts with me, I can see why this great magazine has been around for so long: 441,000 -- Total circulation of American Girl. 134 -- Number of girls who have appeared on the cover of American Girl. 10.5 -- Average age of American Girl readers. 1,006,271 -- Number of letters and emails received since American Girl started in 1993.
