Magazine subscription for 11 year old boy

[MirandaWest]

I think DS wpiof like a magazine subscription but not sure quite what. What magazines do similar ages boys enjoy please?

National geographic or Xbox live? My ds is just turned 12 and got both last year for Xmas - hard to say which he loved more tbh

My 11 year old twin boys have The Phoenix,First News and The Beano.

110% Gaming. It's a new magazine for 8-12 year old gamers.

My son gets anorak and aquila, and loved a 6 week trial of the phoenix.

Thank you :) Didn't realise there was an Xbox live magazine and hadn't heard of the 110% gaming magazine either. He has read issues of Phoenix and wasn't that interested in it. Might like the beano I think. How earnest is Aquila?
Anorak looks interesting too and he might well enjoy National Geographic :)

I 'very got ds the national geographic one and got it with tesco vouchers.

ds1 (12) has How It Works which he seems to quite enjoys, think he has had it for about a year.

Flipside
Both my dc loved this magazine.

Flipside looks good - but your link says it closed in July!

Just had a look at Flipside but it says it's been discontinued :(

There is a website/app thingy called Readly where you pay monthly and can read any of the magazines/comics on it. I read about it on hear and love it . If he has a phone/tablet etc he can read on it, it has xbox, gaming , Nat Geo Kids etc. Or you can get the free trail and check out the magazines if you still wanted to get a subscription.

That does sound good although tbh I'd quite like to disconnect him from his tablet a bit

Sorry didnt realise. Its a shame because it was very good.

How it works.
They also publish a history one.

Another vote for How it Works

My parents bought my 10 year old a subscription to Aquila ..and tbh it's rather dull. The whole issue is themed around a topic each time but it's never really caught his imagination,even though he really likes reading fact books.

Think an 11 year old might find it a bit young too, especially if he's at secondary school.
