Give it a Smart little Green “twist” like the one created by a mommy-entrepreneur from Redwood City...

Although "Our Little Earth" is an “international” newspaper for children 8 to 12 years of age...

Become the "Our Little Earth"... For your Community... Maybe with Fundraising & Sponsorship Tie-ins...

Make sure your Publication is in hard copy Offline & Online and ready for Expansion into other Geo-locations...

You just never know on Expanding & Growing ideas... Specialty products... And/or maybe Licencing Agreements... Affiliate backends...

Help your child learn about current events and the world with a child-friendly online newspaper geared specifically for them...
