Curious Side Effects

Possible reactions may include: sudden urges to inspect bugs, looking under, over, and around everything, and sharing new facts during dinner.

Curiosity may have some consequences. And that's okay.

It may cause muddy floors, sticky fingers, grass stains, and some… questionable things found in pockets. Because curiosity is rarely neat. It often leaves a trail from the backyard to the dinner table.

At Nat Geo Kids, we believe the mess is worth the magic that comes with learning, growing, and seeing the world's wonders for the first time. So we've started including warning labels for all the wonder they'll get into.

Ages 6–8
