Kidz Magazine (1995–2007) was a Boulder County based publication that was started in 1995 by entrepreneur and father of six, Scott Smith. Smith developed the idea for the magazine with Glenn Meyers, another father and Spanish instructor at the University of Colorado-Boulder, as they stood outside their children's school discussing ways to further inspire kids towards reading and writing. Their belief was that kids would be more interested in reading things that were written by their peers than content created for them by adults. In addition, they believed that kids would be more inspired to write if they knew it was an audience of peers who would end up reading the material.
