Do your children or grandchildren spend too much time on screens and not
enough time reading? The latest National Literacy Trust Survey 2024 https://literacytrust.org.uk/research-services shows that only 34.6% of 8 to 18-year-olds say they
enjoy reading in their free time.
We need to re-engage children with the love of reading and the key to getting
them reading and learning instead is to ask a simple but important question:
“What really interests you?” Many keen young readers are naturally drawn to
stories and poems. But many other curious young minds prefer amazing facts
about space, animals, nature, history, art, sport and a thousand other nonfiction topics.
This insight – that factual information can be a powerful pathway to a lifelong
love of reading and self-discovery – inspired the creation of What on Earth!
Magazine, a fun and fascinating non-fiction, award-winning monthly
magazine.
“For many children the real world is far more amazing than anything you can
make up. Tapping into this natural sense of wonder and curiosity about the
world we live in lies at the heart of What on Earth! Magazine which is designed
to develop a lifelong love of learning through reading.” Christopher Lloyd,
Founder and CEO, What on Earth Magazines Ltd
So whether they’re an avid animal lover, a budding inventor or a technology
whizz, they will find plenty inside each issue of What on Earth! Magazine to
keep their brains buzzing.
