(New York, NY — October 19, 2020) — Today, _TIME for Kids_, the trusted publication that has provided quality journalism to millions of students in elementary classrooms across the U.S. for 25 years, launches a new premium digital subscription product that, for the first time, provides at home access to the same age-appropriate news and current event content that _TIME for Kids_ offers in schools. This new _TIME for Kids_ digital experience is designed to keep kids learning, help them understand the news, and connect them to the world from home. 

“The mission of _TIME for Kids_ is to create a safe and engaging experience for kids to explore the world on their own,” said _TIME for Kids_ editor in chief Andrea Delbanco. “With the continued uncertainty around kids going back to school amid the coronavirus pandemic, _TIME for Kids_ has built its first-ever home product to be flexible for the needs of all families and to provide a fun resource and tool they can turn to help support remote learning.” 

The _TIME for Kids_ subscription designed for home use includes digital access to new editions of _TIME for Kids_ each week, as well as access to every issue of _TIME for Kids_ that has been previously published in 2020\. Every week, subscribers will also receive a special _TIME for Kid_s newsletter to serve as a supplemental guide for the content in each new issue, with helpful curriculum, conversation guides, resources, and engaging activities to make the most out of every issue of _TIME for Kids_ at home. Subscriptions are available beginning at $19.99 per year through an introductory offer. 


This new _TIME for Kids_ subscription is the latest offering from _TIME for Kids_ that aims to help families, kids and teachers navigate the ongoing uncertainty around kids going back to school amid the coronavirus pandemic. Most recently, _TIME for Kids_ unveiled a new [subscription](https://w1.buysub.com/servlet/OrdersGateway?cds%5Fmag%5Fcode=TFK&cds%5Fpage%5Fid=254412&cds%5Fresponse%5Fkey=FIMPR1020), designed specifically for teachers, that connects the print and digital _TIME for Kids_ experiences and enables flexibility between the in-classroom and remote learning experience for students. In March, when schools initially closed due to coronavirus, _TIME for Kids_ was made available digitally, for free, and in multiple languages including Spanish and Chinese, for the first time with the launch of the _TIME for Kids_ digital library, which has been accessed by over 350,000 people in all 50 states across the U.S. and more than 140 countries around the world.
