Discover a Refreshing, Offline Space Made just for Preteen Girls 8 – 12
Remember the thrill of flipping through your favorite magazine as a kid? Glittery pages filled with quizzes, DIYs, and fun ideas—those hours of giddy, imaginative escape? For many moms, those memories come with a twinge of nostalgia…and a bit of hindsight. Because tucked between the fun were unrealistic beauty standards, celebrity gossip, and articles that encouraged us to grow up faster than we should have.
Today’s girls still crave something of their own—something tactile, inspiring, and fun. But in a world of endless scrolling and adult content creeping into every corner of the internet, finding age-appropriate media that celebrates girlhood is harder than it should be.
Enter Tween Magazine, a fresh, print-first publication tailor-made for girls ages 8 to 12. Launched by a local mom of three young girls, Tween Magazine is bringing back the magic of print magazines for kids—this time, with messages we want our daughters to hear. No kissing tips or pressure to be older, cooler, or thinner. Just pure, positive content about friendship, creativity, career inspiration, role models, and the joy of being a kid.
Each quarterly issue features stories of real girls doing amazing things, book recommendations, crafts and writing prompts, fun fashion that celebrates individuality, and inspiring interviews—with scientists, athletes, musicians, and young changemakers who prove that girlhood is powerful just as it is.
Recent issues have included interviews with a NASA Materials Scientist, NBC’s The Voice winner Brynn Cartelli, entrepreneur Kheris Rogers, playwright Lauren Gunderson, and more.
At a time when anxiety in girls is at an all-time high, Tween Magazine is more than just a magazine—it’s a movement. Anxiety diagnoses in teens have increased 134% since 2010 (Anxious Generation) and 46% of adolescents say social media makes them feel worse about their body, (Surgeon General Vivek Murthy).
Tween is creating a real-life, off-line community for girls. Girls can join their penpal program, submit recipes, art & comics, stories, travel stories, and more.
Tween is a great, non-toy gift for young girls! Check out TweenMag.com to subscribe and follow along on Instagram @TweenMagazineforGirls.
