Goofus is now Gallant’s parole officer.
I had a long running subscription for my children which I had to cancel about ten years ago. Their CEO made a deliberate decision to go full on with anti-Christian values. I believe that there was a thread about it here at the time. Now Highlights magazine is just another indoctrination tool of the left.

I did a Google search for ‘Highlights magazine woke’. It looks as though it has gone woke. Disappointing.
Nope.
Buy old books. Find them used on Amazon or Ebay.
There are plenty of old children's series published in the 1940s - 1960s that are traditional and non-woke. The Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew are the most famous, but here are some others I enjoyed as a kid...
* Alfred Hitchcock and the Three Investigators.
* Three Boys.

Highlights, the nationally recognized magazine for kids, has decided to include same-sex families in their magazines. Babies and preschoolers will soon be introduced to homosexuality in the Highlights line of magazines. Sadly, children’s publications are no longer off limits, even those designed specifically for toddlers and elementary age children.
Highlights had stated previously that they believe parents should decide when to bring up the topic of homosexuality. But after backlash from the LGBT community, Highlights committed to including same-sex families in future publications.
Highlights’ Christine Cully said, “When we do show families in the magazines, we make it a point to include diversity. We strive to be diverse in every way…In the future, we will depict same-sex families in our magazines in a manner consistent to the way all diverse families are depicted.”
Many parents and grandparents buy subscriptions to these magazines as gifts, especially at this time of year. They should be warned of the upcoming change of content in these kid’s magazines. It is not Highlights’ job to introduce so-called “social issues” to children. That is a parent’s role.
heck. With the filth in kids magazines and books now it would be more tame just getting a subscription of Hustler.....
I did a sarch on google about their wokeness before I posted this. I am really looking for someone that has seen it and is it that bad? Is there any other magazine like Highlights that isn’t woke? Damn liberals want to wreck everything.
National Geographic has some good magazines for kids your granddaughter might like. “Little Kids” would be for your granddaughter’s age.
I’m surprised they’re still around. They are woke if you look at the company website.
Question. Wouldn’t a truly woke company go only digital saving the trees and other natural resources? Na, that would make too much sense with liberal logic
For a child that age you might get the most popular of the Little Golden Books; they’re still available on Amazon among other places.
Seeing as how Highlights has gone woke, you might look at the Ranger Rick series if she likes animals. Kids in my family loved it. They have Cub for ages up to four, Ranger Rick Jr. for ages 4-7, etc. You can look at sample issues here:

Nothing woke I could see.
Used to be fun to read Highlights. I’m sorry to see it has gone to the dark side.
Focus on the Family puts out a magazine for 3-7 year olds

You can get one issue to see what it’s like before subscribing.
I remember seeing the story of the haunted Raggedy Ann doll in that mag when I was young and never picked it up again. Must have been mid 1970s. Still scares me to this day.
Will Goofus be a “homophobe,” and Gallant woke?
Don’t know about currently, but it was leaning that way when my children were in grade school in the 70’s and 80’s.
