Wired (1-year)

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Home and Garden
from: Conde Nast Publications


I'm sure this is more for the tech minded; but, there's still enough in it for the rest of us. If you have time and enjoy spending it thumbing thru magazines, this one is certainly entertaining. The ads are sleek, the men are handsome and there's tidbits of info for everyone.

Bon Appetit (1-year)

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Home and Garden
from: Conde' Nast Publications


I received a free subscription to this magazine over the past year. While the recipes look decidant - they are not really something that I would make. I am a working mother of 2 small children, I don't really have time to come home from work and whip up a Gourmet Meal. The ingredients are also uncommon items that would need to be bought in specialty stores. I imagine that I should have guessed by the title that the magazine is not really in my cooking league. However, if you like to cook and use fancy ingredients - this is probably the magazine for you!

Ranger Rick

As a neighbor, aunt, and grandmother, I give Ranger Rick to a number of kids. It fosters reading, encourages the love of nature, and provides hours of fun. It's not expensive, plus it keeps on giving. The low subscription price is negligible, yet the child gets a "present" every month.

Good Housekeeping (1-year)

I was browsing Amazon when I ran across a great deal on Good Housekeeping Magazine -- only $5 for a year. I used to love this magazine and my first issue didn't disappoint.

Your Big Backyard

My youngest daughter loves this magazine and I love that there is no advertising in it. The baby animals are very attractive to children and that keeps them interested in reading about them. I also receive Spider magazine for my older child and it does not contain advertising either.

National Geographic Kids

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Home and Garden
from: National Geographic Society

November 23, 2001
We received our first issue of National Geographic Kids today and promptly cancelled it the same day. I didn't even want my son to see it. Not only is it filled with advertising but the "science" articles are unsophisticated and tabloid-ish. I wish we had read the reviews before ordering. We assumed that this would be comparable to World Magazine and were terribly wrong.

Gourmet (1-year)

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Home and Garden
from: Conde' Nast Publications


I will be brief. I received this as a gift and am not a hobby or any other type of gourmet cook. However, I am impressed. It is well put together- great articles, supported by high quality photography and recipes that so surprisingly, are not intimidating. My college age daughter, now ever so sensitive to good quality food versus poor quality food was drawn to the magazine. I have ordered her a subscription for Christmas. Don't tell. :)

House Beautiful (1-year)

Nice pictures of houses you would be comfortable in. Much better than most magazines. Not as good as architectural digest.
