WHAT IT MEANS AT EACH AGE
0–2
Too young
Talk carries Nat Geo Kids at grown-up speed, and the explaining goes straight past a two-year-old. What a two-year-old gets is the footage and the music, which will hold them for a stretch.
3–5
A little young
A four-year-old follows filmed footage easily, and the bright tone and the music in Nat Geo Kids keep a four-year-old sitting. The words are what sit above a four-year-old, and the words are most of what is happening.
6–8
Good fit
At age seven, the explaining in Nat Geo Kids stops being the obstacle and becomes the point. A seven-year-old has the words now, and the words were the thing keeping a younger child out.
9–10
Good fit
Nat Geo Kids holds at age nine, and the footage is why. Real film of how something gets made, or of an animal doing what animals do, holds up in a way an explanation does not. The framing stays pitched young, so a ten-year-old takes the subject and leaves the presenting.

WHAT TO KNOW

SUMMARY
Nat Geo Kids is the footage. A crew at work or an animal doing what animals do holds up, and the presenting is the part that ages. From age six on, the pictures are the reason to put Nat Geo Kids on.
