Happy 60th Birthday Highlights!

If you were a kid over the last 60 years, and you went to the dentist, and you had to wait for your appointment, and you know who Goofus and Gallant are....then you know HIGHLIGHTS MAGAZINE! Yay!

I loved this magazine when I was a kid. I think my dentist had the same issue in his waiting room for the entire decade that I saw him as a patient -which made finding the hidden pictures and completing the other games really easy.

I used to love going to the dentist - me and my brother got to pick out a little plastic toy from a cardboard treasure chest at the end of our visits! And to me, Highlights Magazine will always = Dentist visits.

Anyone else a Highlights fan?

Cheers, Lara

I haven't reached 60 yet I just turned 30 last tuesday june 13th

I was so disappointed when I subscribed to Highlights for my daughter earlier this year only to be told that it was boring and way too easy. *sigh* I cancelled the subscription after 2 months.
