I recently started subscribing to more magazines to keep up with Aditya's reading needs. Right now, we get Tinkle, Tinkle Digest, National Geographic, Popular Science, Popular Mechanics and Wired.
Of course, I read the artiles first and "sanitize" the magazines, but still enough information slips through for Aditya to make the following comment.
We recently subscribed to Telugu channels on TV in an effort to get Adi more exposure to Telugu. He was watching a movie, where couple of guys don the diguise of a cow. He was laughing when a drunk milkman tried to milk the fake cow etc. Then a bull in heat enters the scene and the fake cow starts running. So Adi asks me why the guys are running. I told him its because they are afraid the bull will chase them. His response, "oh, so the bull will try to mate with the fake cow?"!!!!!!!

It is not the NG that needs sanitizing...it is the Telugu TV.
NG does need some sanitization since there are articles on human rights violations and child abuses etc, that are not suitable for kids his age. Unfortunately, the NG kids is too simple for him and the adult is too mature. There are no magazines that cover the 6-12 age spectrum.
