The Impact Creative Services team believes kids want to learn and that learning is fun!

For 20 years, we have been producing a weekly kids’ pages for newspaper around the world.

Our educational activity pages teach and entertain. Our learning resources are used by both families and schools. Teachers use the page in schools to promote standards-based learning. Parents use the Kid Scoop materials to foster academic success, a joy of learning and family discussions.

We also publish a monthly newspaper for kids that is distributed to 20,000 students each month in the San Francisco Bay Area!

Over 25 years of experience in the field has taught us that children learn when they are engaged in the subject. We know that our puzzles and activities draw children into the page. This stimulates the child’s interest and they then read the text. Every section they read and complete furthers their mastery of an academic skill. When parents show an interest and read the page with their child, they establish the value of this educational tool.

New in September 2019: Two Kid Scoop Books for Kids!
