Hi, MiniMaggers!

GOAT • EXCLUSIVELY IN CINEMAS 13 FEBRUARY

Rhinos, Giants with Armour • Rhinos are among Africa’s most iconic animals – huge, strong and covered in thick skin that looks like natural armour! But even though they look fierce, rhinos are gentle giants who mostly prefer peace and quiet. Sadly, these magnificent creatures are now endangered, and protecting them has become one of the most important wildlife missions in the world.

Hiding in the Wetlands!

Wetlands: Where Nature and Culture meet • When people hear the word wetlands, they often think of muddy ground, buzzing insects and places too wet to walk through. But wetlands are far more exciting – and far more important – than they might seem at first glance. Wetlands include marshes, swamps, floodplains, peatlands and mangroves and they are some of the most productive ecosystems on Earth.

Hippos – Wetland Giants • Hidden among Africa’s rivers, lakes and wetlands, one of the savannah’s biggest giants quietly rules the water – the hippopotamus. Although hippos live on open grasslands, they depend heavily on wetlands to survive.

GAME ON! IT TAKES A TEAM TO MAKE A GAME • When you play a game, it can feel like magic. The character moves when you press a button. The world reacts. Music swells at just the right moment. Everything feels smooth, exciting and alive. But here’s something most players don’t see: games aren’t made by one person.

The Science of Earth’s Ancient Plants • Long before humans walked the Earth – and even before dinosaurs ruled the land – plants were already shaping our planet. Towering ferns, giant trees and strange seed plants once covered the Earth, creating forests, wetlands and swamps that looked very different from what we see today.

Milano Cortina 2026: WHERE WINTER DREAMS TAKE FLIGHT • Every four years, the world gathers to celebrate sport at its most daring, graceful and thrilling. In February 2026, athletes from across the globe will head to Italy for the Winter Olympic Games: Milano Cortina 2026.

Elec-terrific Fuel! • To do anything at all, you need energy. You need energy to pick up a cup of coffee, and your dog needs energy to bark at a stranger. Traffic lights on the way to school need energy to shine, and every vehicle on the road uses energy to keep moving. Without energy, Earth would be cold, dark and lifeless – with no motion, no sound and no growth.

Explosive Electricity • Humans first learned to control energy by making fires for warmth and cooking. Later, coal-powered steam engines changed transport and industry. But the biggest game-changer of all was electricity.
