Winner of numerous awards for editorial excellence, our parenting magazines deliver parenting news and information to a dynamic audience of over 500,000 parents with the sophistication and means to raise families in affluent greater New York. We are THE parent-targeted market!
We are audited! Our surveys show our readers rely on the information we provide every month, and that they hold onto our publications for up to a year, to use as reference tools.
In each issue they receive:
- The latest news in health care, education, and child development
- Columns on cultural offerings, family vacations and long-term financial planning
- Previews of just-released books, videos, movies and software for kids
Readers are kept up-to-date with the broad spectrum of local services and opportunities — from innovative play centers and sports facilities, to classes in the arts.
Each issue includes an unequaled Calendar of Events — listings and descriptions of family outings for every day of the month.
We also publish the following special supplements and pull-out guides: Summer Camp Roundup; Party Guide; Cultural Guide; Health & Fitness Directory; Back-to-School Directory; Holiday Gift Guide; and our annual "Yellow Pages" of Parent Resources — our "Source Book".
