in It's gone, but was it any good?
The Independent is giving away five free educational posters to collect.

You can collect a series of double-sided, glossy posters featuring popular science and geography topics to brighten up your kids bedroom. From Monday 11 September, The Independent is offering educational posters free with every copy of the newspaper.

The five posters to collect are:
    Monday 11 September - Solar System
    Tuesday 12 September - Weather System
    Wednesday 13 September - Human Body
    Thursday 14 September - Dynamic Earth
    Friday 15 September - Trees

On the reverse of each poster will be a section of a giant human body; all five posters together will make up the whole. Hope this is useful for you all, especially ones with kids!

    Looks like they haven't updated it yet! If you look closely at this link the picture still has pluto as the 9th planet. Still, worth collecting me thinks.
