Our Mission

Kid Spirit is a coed magazine for deep thinkers with big ideas. It is a unique forum for kids who are curious about the meaning of life and age-old questions that affect us all. We want to help the young people of the world show their colors and share each others’ belief systems, cultures, art, traditions, ideas and values. Our goal is to share many perspectives and encourage each other to think about what is important in our lives and in our world.

Each issue has a thought-provoking theme that will draw in readers and urge further exploration. Our Editorial Board meets once a month to discuss topics of interest, have fun,  and eat cookies. We invite exchange from our readers through ideas, poetry, artwork, and other submissions.
