Fun With a Purpose
We believe children are the world’s most important people—and the educators who nurture their boundless potential play a vital role in their lives.
We know you care deeply about helping children become their best selves, which has been the Highlights’ mission since publishing its first magazine nearly 80 years ago. Every product we’ve put into children’s hands has been aimed at helping them grow into curious, creative, confident, and caring humans.
With Highlights Early Learning, we are extending Highlight’s mission, “fun with a purpose,” at early childhood education settings through play-based learning materials that delight the children who engage with them and the educators who use them. Together with educators, we can reach more children—especially those who might not otherwise experience our magazines—with lessons and activities that inspire them as natural learners and ignite their boundless potential.
Every product we offer adapts beloved Highlights activities, features, and approaches for early childhood instruction through intentional, user-friendly pedagogy and design—while always staying true to the Highlights philosophy that has guided us from the start.
