The issues contain various health-related information, especially for and about children.

Each of the issues usually focuses on a different pioneer or important figure in medicine and health. One contains a few articles on Florence Nightingale, while another covers Edward... Livingston Trudeau. Another section is usually included about health activities, like stretching, humming while exercising to help the voice, anger control methods, or standing up straight. A puzzle page is included, usually featuring word puzzles and relating to healthy activities like getting enough sunshine, or reminders to wash hands before you eat.
