And, while you’re waiting for it to arrive, you can check out this photo of the largest ever Lego tower, and figure out how you will beat that record! It’ll only cost you the price of about a half a million Lego bricks.

I’d headed over there because my super cool awesome former nanny friend bought my daughter a subscription to the National Geographic Kids magazine for her birthday, and we just received the first issue yesterday. What a fun magazine! In this first issue we’re already finding great photos, fun joke pages (you know kids love a good joke!), features on animal rescue shelters, and a chart to help you pick the perfect pet (my daughter was really excited about that!). The last page included a Mad Libs type activity, and also featured some original drawings from their readers.

I remember receiving the magazine Highlights for Children from my godmother when I was a kid. We would be so excited to receive our own mail and our own magazine. The stories and puzzles and games were so fun, and it was a gift that was new every month! My daughter seems as excited as I used to be for this gift. And now, when she asks (as she does every day), “Is there any mail for me?”, I can answer her, at least once a month, “Yep, honey, just for you.”

Do your kids have a favorite magazine or activity book?
