grrit.y kids galaxy
This is the September issue, twice. Read turns it page by page like the paper one. Games opens every puzzle so you can actually do them. Hit Draw and you can scribble on any page. Tap Read to me and it reads itself out loud.
Welcome back to the galaxy
Ms. Erin writes the first page every month, by hand, on the same lined paper.
Watch her write it
FilmThe whole letter, start to finish, sped up.
Four things to solve
Same puzzles as the paper issue. These ones check your answers.
Secret code
Type itEvery letter is a number. A is 1, B is 2, all the way to Z. Fill in the blanks to crack the message.
Mixed up
UnscrambleEight words got shaken up. Type each one back the right way round. It turns green when you get it.
Word search
Drag to findEight words are hiding. Drag across the letters to grab one. They can run any direction, backwards included.
The maze
Trace itChallenge: alternate between unicorns doing yoga and Magic 8 balls the whole way through. Draw with your finger or your mouse.
Weird but true
Eight facts we checked. Brown really is the most common eye color. Oscar the Grouch really was orange.
Color it in
Pick a color, then tap any space. It fills like a coloring book. Hit Draw up top and you get pens, a highlighter, sparkles and stampers on these pages too. Nothing saves, so there is no way to ruin it.
Love yourself
Color itDrawn by Ann, our Art Director Intern. Fill a space, or draw, sparkle and stamp right over the top.
The grrit.y kid
Color itFill a space, or draw, sparkle and stamp right over the top. Finish it and a grown-up can send a photo to @grrit.ykids. It might be in the next issue.
Watch the grrit.y kid get drawn
FilmMs. Erin draws them from scratch, in pencil, on graph paper. Then go color yours in.

One sheet of newspaper, one hat, one boat
Twelve folds. Go one at a time and the diagram stays with you.
The random page
No theme. That is the theme.
Read the issue, then listen
Gaia Cornwall reads Jabari Jumps and talks with Ms. Erin about being brave on your own timeline, not somebody else's.
Send us a real letter
Fill this in, print it, fold it, stamp it. A letter that shows up in a mailbox still beats everything.

Nothing you type here leaves this page. It is not sent, not stored, and not read by anyone until you print it and post it yourself.
