Your best bet for low ad magazines are those that are only available by subscription. When you finally choose the magazines you are interested in subscribing to, run a check on them through the Better Business Bureau of the state they are located in. Find out if they give refunds if you are not satisfied and if they have any complaints filed against them. One magazine geared towards children was recently found to contain foul language and sexually suggestive stories, so check the magazine out before you buy it. Some magazines I would recommend to get you started include an old favorite, Highlights.
Highlights has wonderful stories for children, activities and contests and children love it.
Highlights can only be purchased through subscription, but you can probably check it out in the library or pediatrician s office if you don t remember reading it as a child. National Geographic is also a wonderful magazine for children but it may be beyond your child s age range. National Geographic has recently begun a magazine for younger children. Be sure to check any magazine that comes into your home and read them with your child as well. Some quality suggestions.
