I want my kids to be aware of current events. I think its important for them to be able to discuss what is happening in our world and how to see it through a biblical perspective. God’s World News is an excellent resource for current events. Its a magazine that is geared towards your child’s age that gets sent to you through the mail every couple of months. The magazine’s that are available range from preschool age to post high school. What I like about GWN magazines is how they are written from a biblical perspective. The kids look forward to getting them in the mail and want to read them right away.
For my older children, I need more current events than what GWN’s magazine can provide. I still use GWN but I add on other sources for current events. Another source that I found was dogonews.com. This is a website that has set up current events for kids in various categories. Dogonews.com does not represent a biblical perspective with its news articles but because it is geared towards kids, I have not found objectionable content. This is another great resource for my older kids to do more current event reports during the week.
