plansrme Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 The Economist, the reading of which is practically a part-time job; Cooking Light (only about one year our of every 3, as I find it repeats itself) In the past, we have subscribed to Sports Illustrated, but we let it lapse because I read it more than my husband. Remember when people used to ask what magazines or newspaper you "take"? No one says that any more, which is a shame. Terri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FaithManor Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 Hmmm, I might have to check into some of these! Do you share Smithsonian with your kids a lot? My kids are ages 20 (college student) 14 (9th grade), 12 (13 next week and 8th grade), and 11 (6th grade). So, sometimes they are assigned specific articles to read and discuss or write about. But, I do read quite a bit aloud for the whole family. We also take them in the car and I read the whole trip. When we went to D.C., I covered articles from several issues of National Geographic, Smithsonian, and Scientific American. Even when we go shopping to the "city" (52 miles away), I can cover a couple of articles on the way there while dh drives. He loves the discussions and it's another way for him to be involved in their education. This month's issue of Smithsonian had a lead article on the Taj Mahal. Ds is studying art history and has been added to his required reading in architecture. Faith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

songsparrow Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 My kids are subscribed to Highlights, Kids Discover, Creative Kids, National Geographic Kids, Scholastic Art, Arts & Activities, and Skating magazine (figure skating). I keep them in a portable library in the seat-back pockets in our car, updating them when a new magazine arrives. It has worked well for us - they will grab a magazine to look at whenever they're bored in the car, or if they need something to pass the time in a restaurant or waiting room.

tammyw Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Smithsonian, Old House Journal, National Geographic, American History, and whatever it is the National Trust for Historic Preservation sends out. On-line I read Mental Floss and has much of Country Living as they put on-line. I was at the library today and checked out Smithsonian and loved it. There was a great article in there about Finland schools actually. I'm definitely subscribing to that one. The only thing is I saw an ad for Joinfolio.com where they offered a gorgeous set of four hardcover Andrew Lang books for something like $20, and you only had to agree to purchase four additional books. All the other books are minimum $50/each and up, though very beautiful. Dang them for tempting me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
