Girls' Life Kindle Edition

Solid magazine for teen girl. Articles are relatively age-appropriate and about topics that are important to many teen girls (fashion, friendship, boys, school, activities and socializing). Notice I said "many", obviously if your teen is not into these things, then this would not be a good fit. I also like that this magazine features more "regular teens" and less "celebrity teens" (like J14). There are celebrity articles, however. For those worried about delivery: I ordered this in October, and she received her first issue within a month, which I consider a quick turn-around for online subscriptions.

The 2 that my Granddaughter got were torn up from not protecting it in the mail. I am sSo Disappointed !!!!!

This is not at all a bad magazine, but make no mistake -- it is not for ten year olds! One would certainly hope that little girls are not yet interested in "what boys really want," and getting a good "bikini body." Parents -- don't choose this magazine for a child!Aside from the publisher's mis-information regarding the target audience, this is an entertaining and fun magazine for high school or young college girls. Of course, it's heavy on the advertisements, but those are the advertisements for all the stuff that teens are interested in. When I read teen magazines as a kid, I drooled over those ads for stuff I dreamed about having! It was just fun, and didn't warp my perception of reality or my position in the world. Don't mistake this for literature or high art -- this is just a little brain candy and fluff to pass the time. As that -- it's a sure hit as a gift for the teen in your life!Recommended as a fun distraction for your busy, stressed and overworked teens!

It is true that not all girls at age 10 are getting crushes on boys, getting curious about kissing, etc., and asking questions about making out, but some are. The magazine answers those questions honestly and encourages kids to wait. For some girls they may not be asking those questions yet, and are not yet ready for honest answers to those kinds of questions. When they are ready and are asking those questions, this magazine is great. I would give it a five star rating it the age rating was explained more, with a caution that not all preteens are ready for these discussions.

Being an actual teen girl and not a parent, I actually think this magazine is great. While it's true that some ten year olds are not into boys/girls, please do not think that they haven't noticed them until they are 17. Not true. By age 12 they probably have noticed them. The rest of the magazine is great- good hair and makeup hacks, style inspiration and actually affordable products/clothes. It doesn't have some of the cool polls and stuff that j-14 does, but more useful life stuff about anything from periods to nightmares. Definitely recommend for teen girls, especially during this time it's nice to have something to do.

I ordered this for my nine year old daughter. From reading about it online at the time it seemed appropriate. I will admit I am not crazy about censoring what she reads and watches. However after ordering it I saw it in the store and flipped through it. I immediately canceled my order. It is not appropriate for a nine year old. She would love the celebrities (often Disney Channel girls) and the fashion and beauty articles. Along with recipes and other fun things, but there is also plenty of articles that I do not think she is old enough for yet. I will wait until she is at least 12. Just a heads up for other parents.

We signed up for two years, 6 issues per year. In those two years, we got maybe three or four issues. The ones that did come our daughter did read, but when I asked her if she wanted to continue to get it she said "no." So three stars on the magazine, but 1 star for their ability to deliver the magazine, two overall. And that's probably generous.

For my Grandaughter. Tried more than three times to change address where it was to be sent. Never worked. It comes to my house NOT WHERE I wanted it sent.
