The Mini Page

 

For almost 50 years, The Mini Page, a weekly newspaper for children, has entertained and instructed kids in classrooms and homes. Each week, The Mini Page presents fascinating facts on a different topic in a way that kids can understand and relate to.

Each week's topic is supported by word puzzles, connect the dots puzzles, recipes, drawings and pictures. The new page will be updated each Friday and can be found on the right column.
