We look for stories and resources that:

  • Are appropriate for children, families and educators
  • Offer meaningful educational, creative or developmental value

  • Align with our focus on creativity, learning and emotional growth

Submission does not guarantee publication. All submissions are reviewed for editorial fit and relevance to our audience.


Editorial & Sponsored Content

Kids News & Reviews maintains a clear distinction between editorial coverage and sponsored content.

EDITORIAL CONTENT

Editorial stories are selected because they offer something meaningful to our readers. This may include interivews or expert articles featuring a certain educator, child development expert, children’s artist, author, or a resource, program or learning experience that is equally as valuable and unique that we feel could inspire others who work with or care for children. Although we regularly review such products and services, individual products and services that are chosen to be featured are not automatically guaranteed their own editorial story. Selected resources may be included in editorial roundups, Editor’s Picks, or strictly for our social media campaigns.

SPONSORED CONTENT

Sponsored content is paid promotional content featuring a product, service, program or organization.

Sponsored opportunities must be vetted and approved by our editor before booking. Please review our Media Kit for details about these current opportunities or email our editor if you would like to pitch us an idea for your sponsored story or campaign with us.


Submission Information

If you would like to be considered for an editorial feature, please send a detailed press release to:

Please note: Due to the volume of submissions we receive, response times can take up to two months.
