About Us

Discovery Girls magazine is created by girls, for girls ages 8 & up. By creating a forum for girls to share their dreams, ideas, and fears, Discovery Girls celebrates girls’ individuality and inspires them to believe in themselves. Packed with everything girls love— quizzes, contests, compelling features, fashion, sports, beauty, and more— Discovery Girls entertains, informs and inspires…and most of all shows today’s tween that she is not alone! With “real” girls—our very own readers—modeling, writing, and helping create each issue, it’s a great resource for both girls and their parents!
