Bloom revenue with wildflowers

Posted

Spring wildflowers signal a season of growth. Your retailers stock patio and garden items, and grocery stores are bursting with local farm produce. It’s a time when foundations associated with corporations and utilities seek out new recipients for funding. Your newspaper can be on the receiving end! Reach out to these hidden funders with this smart-fun Kid Scoop page that teaches important reading skills: context clues and following directions.

Kid Scoop specializes in helping newspapers use our weekly pages to build circulation, family readership and sustainable revenue. With years of learning lost to the pandemic, learning at home has become even more vital for children to catch up. Even schools that didn’t experience long closures saw a decline in reading and math scores. Teachers need the help of adults at home to add reading experiences for children after the school bell rings. Kid Scoop is designed for that purpose — to bring together children, parents and other family members to practice reading skills — in a fun way! Each activity on the Kid Scoop page is designed for specific learning purpose. Notice the standards links in small type.

Take a close look at the Kid Scoop activity in the lower left corner. This takes children into other parts of your newspaper. That’s deliberate! Children leafing through your newspaper’s pages often discover articles of interest to read, thus intensifying the extra learning time at home. Remember, these are your future subscribers. Grow them just like wildflowers!
