Kind News reveals the beauty and wonder of the animals who share our world while also exploring the challenges they face. Through profiles of amazing kids, features about rescued animals, pet care tips, and how-tos on helping backyard wildlife, Kind News encourages youth to coexist humanely with animals, celebrate the human-animal bond, and become active in efforts to protect animals.


Totally redesigned for the 2011-2012 school year, Kind News is still filled with the colorful articles, short features, and fun activities that children and teachers love. The 8-page magazine maintains its emphasis on the importance of treating animals with kindness and respect, and topics like proper pet care and wildlife appreciation grab students' interest and make abstract values like compassion, citizenship, and responsibility come alive.

Aligned with National Education Standards for the major subject areas, Kind News  is published five times throughout the school year and is available in three reading levels: Primary Edition (grades K-2), Junior Edition (grades 3-4), and Senior Edition (grades 5-6). A classroom subscription includes 28 copies of each issue and a teacher’s guide. Read the Frequently Asked Questions about Kind News to learn more.
